How about this RBN report of 86 db SNR, with 100 watts
and an Inverted L!!!!

   W3LPL   EI/W5GN 1839.0 CQ 86 DB 30 WPM 0623Z 30 JAN

N4ZR pointed out that that could have been a much
stronger signal in the 50Hz bandwidth the skimmer
listens to, but it reinforces the potential inaccuracy
of RBN SNR.  Ain't no way I was that strong!!
