Good point Barry....

Best copy was on my 500-ft JA Beverage. At times JA1HQT was almost as loud
on the 600-ft. West Beverage. I didn't try to listen on the TX antenna.

Tx antenna is an inverted L with eight raised radials. About 70-feet
vertical, then slopes down to about 30 feet. (But I'm busy laying the 480
radials for my new 3-el. parasitic array, centered on a 100-ft series-fed
tower).

QTH is in rural area 10 miles south of Dover, Delaware. Generally a very
low noise floor.
