I'll need to talk to my neighbours about any
equivalent here, hi. Are these Beverage antenna height, or higher?
Thanks.

I have a 700' N/S longwire and a 900' E/W
longwire that are my primary antennas. I get
more local AC noise on the E/W wire and even
though most LWBC is stronger on the E/W, the N/S
wire has less noise and better overall S/N. When
I lived in northeast Oregon I also had longwire
antennas and would get LWBC; being much farther
south here in AZ I never really expected to get
much, and have been very pleased with what's
been heard, especially this season. Several
instances of 252 Algeria at "armchair copy" in
AM sync mode, where normally the NDBs cause
strong hets from the carriers, and the NDB
idents themselves create "interference". (And
I'm primarily an NDB DXer, but do like to hear any LWBC coming my way!)Steve

to be from the UK and Lithuania, a contrast to poor TP conditions.
