Alright, that makes sense . It also explains getting Glens Falls NY and Baltimore while phasing Manchester CT on 1230 using basically the same settings. Jim

Therefore, while the DKAZ aimed NW would lose about 10 dB off the side aimed SW, note that the vertical is omni and would pick up plenty of WHBG which does get out quite well at sunset. 73 KAZ _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com
