After spending morning and evenings listening on all available antennas
both kd9sv and k9uwa are in agreement that at least for this
DX-pedition, we are definately in an RF "black hole" with stations all
around us (within 200 or 300 miles) reporting long periods of decent
copy.
I just returned from a long cold walk in the snow walking my
beverages to confirm that they are still operational. I guess there are
just some areas that each of us has that will be impossible to work from
our particular location.
frustrated and disappointed in nortnern Indiana....de gary kd9sv
