I was running two rx stations overnight - one "mobile" with the eprobe
magmounted on the car roof, frg100, computer etc and the other being the
main station tx loop into the 870.
It was a very very noizy night qrn wise with a strong canadian cold front
lifting the warm air and causing flashes and bangs over a huge swarth of the
northern plains and lakes area gradually moving in a sweep SE direction.
Noiz frrom these storms from the car was avg 9+10-20 with avg agc. I reckon
most of the states and Canadian rx stations would be suffering badly
(perhaps not...)
Even so Warrens XGJ was visible on both systems for part of the night with
Dexs' signal huge most of the time - Both systems also showed MP close to
776 at times
Good visible signals from VA7LF from switch on co channel with ZM2E. I only
saw smatterings of what might have been the ZL signal at their transmission
times but nothing I can decode. VA7LF continued to be visible some 30 mins
after OK dawn, so I know they are radiating stronglyl!
The West coast DOD station close to 136Khz was audibly strong last night and
into dawn this morning too, but nothing from CFH.
Im happy with the mobile set up and will be listening from XE mobile from
this weekend until the 15th or so.
