Re: [IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 11-30



For domestics I'd prefer to record xx:57 to xx:02 since many domestics come
out of their talk shows into local stuff or stuff that can be local about
xx:57.

The Perseus only specs to a low freq of  0C (32F). When mine has been in my
DX truck long term at -20C (-4F) I have had some concerns that while it
worked ok, it may not have been working optimally. Others in colder places
could better advise if they also DX outside as I do in my truck.

Since Paul would want to power from his laptop I'd recommend
http://shop.elad-usa.com/sdr-radio/fdm-s2/ which is a great buy at this
sale price. He'd then bring everything back into the house after recording
across each ToH unless he had a warming tent.
