I have no words to express how much fun I am having just listening 
on 2200m! This has really put the fun back into radio for me. It 
will be even more fun when I get the transmitting antenna and 
transmitter up!

I can monitor WSPR-2, JT9, and QRSS/DFCW simultaneously. I also just 
added a secondary receiver which I use for CW reception or listening 
to other things near the band.

My thanks to Chris for being there every night providing a signal. 
So far he is the only trans-Atlantic signal this season, though 
there were others last winter. I hope to see more in the near future.

I have no idea why PSKReporter didn't get my JT9 spots but I made a 
screen capture showing the details:

I was very pleased with 9 WSPR-2 spots in addition with best signal 
-23. I had 8 the previous night.

73,
Paul N1BUG
