 ;D  ;D  :o

Last evening 5-13 at 2300 +/- I was hearing Blinky over 30db above the noise.
I use Spectan and it was amazing seeing traces without anything except distinct
dashes with very little background "noise speckles".
It obviously is still up to power and the antenna must still be up and in good shape.

Then at 0000 it got into a deep fading signal mode as darkness started to come on...

Good job from Blinky!

Antenna 80 meter inverted V with open wire feed and balanced tuner.
or
125 foot low wire with tuner in my shed and coax into the shack .
TS870 receiver

Signals were fine on either wire...
