Wind(y) sure puts in a very strong signal to your receiver!

I truly wish I owned the KFS SDR site and all of the antennas too!

TCI 530 Omni LP 6 dBi gain -- TCI 532 LP, 12 dBi gain -- TCI 532 LP, 12 dBi gain -- TCI 537B LP, 15 dBi gain @ 135°

Until I can set up my VHF/UHF LP yagi and it's rotator I don't have an anchor point for my longwires. That means not much HF reception at home so I use the "free" online SDRs for now.

Ahhhh!

Yes, those gain numbers shown at that site are remarkable !

All it takes is a priceless site and a multi million dollar custom engineered antenna ! :)
