Hi Joe, Definitely a weak signal reception !
Like a jigsaw, every new piece making the picture clearer. All confirming each other. It must feel good to see it growing. Thanks for sharing. My original career path was Physics, although ultimately I did not follow it, science is still with me. I do enjoy trying to keep up with it all !
