The first time I've had an evening to listen to shortwave in a while. Intuned XLR8 at 00:50 on my PL880 with only the whip as I wait for a pizza on the front porch. XLR8 was very weak on the whip 12 dBu (S2 I guess). Attaching it to my 10 meter random wire it goes up to 36dBu until apparent sign off at 1:17z.
