Reminds me of my early
days on HF, with other hams on the local VHF
repeater while comparing low-band antennas.
"Now I can hear a japanese station on 160.
He's very strong with my new
antenna."
"Here, too.
What did you think. But I can also hear three ZL's and
four
VKs in the background".
.. etc etc.
If you know exactly
who's out there, where and when, you can also hear
him without any difficulty. Similar applies
to smart black boxes.
73,
happy christmas and hope to cul via real airwaves,
Wolf .
