Comments:
As might be expected for January, a struggle against poor propagation, rover
inhibiting cold, and snow/salt induced line noise.
My line noise would have been even worse, had not on Friday evening while
waiting at the intersection at the corner of my property I noticed a blinking
street light where no street light existed. It was an arcing disconnect switch
in the power line. I called the electric company at 11pm, and surprisingly by
the next morning they had installed a temporary cable to bypass that noise
source. But lots of other less exciting sources kept things noisy enough.
