Patrick,
Shame on you, hearing a poor 40-w repeater down there in Orygun!
In our Whidbey Island sojourn, I used to hear CBXQ & CBXU with a
cumulative signal of about S-3 on my R-390A & Space Maggot II.
You ought to sit down and take the time to provide cities &
states or provinces so that one can read and interpret your band-
scan at leisure.
It's interesting to compare your daytime bandscan with my Whidbey
daytime bandscan (all on MP3). Very similar.
Cheers!
Charles
