Re: [IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 10-19



There are two factors at work here:

a.) Walter is in Masset so naturally all conditions will take a dive.

b.) I have been setting up a new flag and enhancing the height of my
existing antennas... hence conditions take a dive.

This comes under the influence of Murphy's all encompassing umbrella!

What have discovered with my "set up of the week" which is 1 Flag antenna
and 1 Wellbrook 9-meter loop plugged into a Misek Phaser
(with a VACTROL altering the termination resistance of the FLAG...) is that
I can get absurdly deep nulls on everything... locals, noise sources,
domestic pests.

Last night I effortlessly phased local CFAX 1070 kHz down into the noise
revealing a likely KNX underneath as well as one other station.

Endless fun.
