Good to see someone else interested in NDB's, could you please put your distances achieved Farley so I can get an idea on what range you are obtaining?  My best this season is around 3,200kms so far... ;D

Some good distances there Farley, we seem to be getting the same averages.  Summer is the better time here for distance but thunderstorm noise can be an issue...
