Well, if I ever needed motivation to improve my antenna situation this was it.  I love WW, but man I must be weak or have poor audio or both.  Guess I better work on antennas and figure out all the voice settings on the 7300.  Nonetheless, the magic of Radio lives...it is soooo cool to hear the bands so alive.    :-)   It is GOOD to be able to work WW again... I sure have missed it.

Single op low power..  Antenna: Carolina Windom at 55’.   IC7300.
Using RUMlogNG.  

Didn't work any US stations even though I could have used the mults.
