RFW 6965 USB 2321 UTC 14 Nov 2015
« on: November 14, 2015, 2321 UTC »
Very weak here.

Update: The signal is improving, up to about an S5/S6 now. I also switched to the NRD 545 and the tilted folded dipole, and that helped a bit as well.

RFW is usually quite strong at my QTH but not tonight.  Dick's weed has wilted in today's light snow and freezing temperatures.  I hear you in the noise.

I have been using online receivers because of strong data hash interference in my neighborhood that I believe is caused by Uverse squeezing up to 100mb/sec through ordinary pairs of wires.
