Hi Scott
 
Well, I can't even hear the the pileup here, because there are only a few which 
make it out of the noise. I know there are hundreds calling, unfortuantelly I 
use TX antenna on RX too so I am more or less deaf!  Putting up a terminated RX 
loop on the 24/Feb when back from holidays and hope this will imporove the 
situation. From RX point of view this QTH is a night mare - S9+10 noise 24/7! 
Basically after I apply all the bells and whistels - NB, ATT, NR and fiddle 
around with AGC - you need a solid S7 signal to make it trough wich is a 
challenge to say the least on the path between ST and US.
 
Hope to work you
 
73 Robert
