Hi Paul,

Concerning the different performance of VLF7 / Bielefeld:

I don't think, since there was no one at the club besides myself for 
only half an hour.
But there was rain/drizzle which often causes static QRM at the metal 
rod antenna (which is not covered by a plastic shield).
It may even be time to wipe away the cobwebs and clean the insulators, 
to prevent traces of humidity from shorting the E-field rod to ground. 
It was dry today (until now, 2017-12-29 17:00 UTC) so if today gives 
better signals than yesterday and before (when it was very humid), we 
know better.
Best greetings and HNY to everyone,
  Wolf DL4YHF .
