What receivers are you using?


For the first two stations I was using the Icom 756 Pro III. After I
heard the Georgia station I switched to the Perseus to see what else I
could hear. I was using the outdoor dipole which faces N-S, which may
have helped null out the Iowa station. I switched to the box loop
after 0200UTC. I found I could null out the Iowa station and hear the
CA station weakly but not nearly as well as earlier.
