Watched with interest last night, had to drop the wires at 0100 when the storm blew in, it was from the SW which is 'ok' for me , W is the killer, but better to take the weight off the system, the top loading coil adds to the drag , though in saying that , its amazing how much windage the 2 inch tube collects ! Try the final run at 0dB , if the conditions hold or pick up , G8HUH might catch you , but a this level , its all in the lap of Gods , or Laurence's Pesky Protons , you have to achieve 40% of the transmission, the average being = minimum detection set level, at the application. Don't forget , Opera decodes , Dynamic detects , The local off air decode is working well , you could jump the frequency [ 5 or 10 Hz] at every tx/rx change over , The system is 'single pass' , that may or may not , add or subtract from the final results, depending if qrm is +/- on the new qrg . The frequency is only for cross checking , plays no part in the detection or validation. The system will validate against your local time stamp, with frequency available as well as reference. Traffic is low , so that might give you a edge ?
