Some amplitude calibration runs on the H rx yesterday
around midday.  At the same time measured the cross-talk
between the two channels.  At 8030 Hz:

 N/S to E/W -58.7 dB
 E/W to N/S -44.2 dB

which is a great improvement on the previous rx, which
was no better than -30 dB.   This is through ensuring
that the impedance from each leg of each balanced pair to
ground are well matched - at both ends of the downlink
cable.

About to run E rx amplitude cal, I'll try to get
that done before Stefan's EbNaut starts at 15:30.

First indications are that the noise is still high on
the H rx: S/Ns are often lower than the E field.

48V supply parts arrived the other day and work well.
No starting problems even with 60 ohms series resistance
using one of these

and

That PSU is adjustable up to 55V which is useful.

So in the next couple of days, both rxs will come indoors for
a PSU upgrade.
