Normal operation this evening as well with a strong signal. TMP 58 B 115 01:04 UTC 12 JAN 2021.  Very little wind ditting and sometimes the dits are longer as if the anemometer is turning very slowly.

"S" 1134 UTC 21 Jan 2021.

"H" 1142 UTC 21 Jan 2021 - Makes me wonder if I heard S or H earlier.

"S" 1204 UTC 21 Jan 2021. Pretty sure it was S.
