Hi Dennis, Thanks for sharing the detailed E100 loggings from your DXing this morning at Grayland. Your ULR and the Twin Ferrite antenna are doing a great job receiving the TP's, and it was very interesting to compare your results with the situation here. Good luck in receiving more DX during the next two days! 73, Gary DeBock (in Puyallup, WA) In a message dated 9/21/2010 7:52:43 A.M. Pacific Daylight Time, vroom...@comcast.net writes:
