Thanks for your kind words Lubos!
I have put up a short, untuned, vertical of approx 5m height and am
feeding this to the RX that runs the grabber. The signals are not as
strong as usual, but I see DI2AM (and some local QRM) on the waterfall
at 1400UTC.
I have restored the grabber to normal, 5 minute updates, but please
ensure you use the following URL:-

I hope to restore the antenna to its full height, and to resonate/match
it, when I can get a replacement section of the telescopic fibreglass
pole. Until then I might have to lower the antenna in bad weather, as
it's only guyed at one level and might be a bit unstable in high winds.
Regards,
