I'm still stumbling trying to totally figure this year's 3 parallel
Beverage receive antenna.  Too little time available for radio this
fall/winter.  I did have one of those tests that I dreamed of today:
I really didn't hear G3PQA at all with a single Beverage tonight at
0430z.  With two Beverages I could tell that he was transmitting but
could not copy.  With all three parallel Beverages John was almost
perfect copy!  Multiple tests had this repeat over and over.
I liked that better than on 20 Dec (UTC) when the Europeans faded so
quick that I often missed a single dit on a signal dip (dit dip?)...
