Hi Reflectees !
Yesterday the Nepalesian DX-ped made an appearance on topband.They were 
unexpectadely loud for a long time. About S 7 on a RX antenna and over S 9 on 
the TX array.
They only managed to work a few Russians and had no copy of all of Europe 
calling.They even could not read the big guns further east ! I suspect that the 
K9AY loops with preamps are overloaded by local AM stations, which are a few 
around that area. I guess that its a pure "frontend overload" that made their 
Rx deaf.If somebody could give them a hint it sure would help tremendously. 
Deducting from the cndx of yesterday, we can clearly say, its not getting any 
better than this. The trick will be to reduce their noise problem.
good hunting !    de wolf   df2py
