Topband: progress report

[Art Snapper]

In the last couple days I have copied both VK3IO and E6GG on 160 cw at
sunrise. They were weak here, but not bad for a 200ft BOG in a residential
neighborhood.

The KD9SV pHEMT FET preamp is a nice addition to the shack. I was able to
do an in/out test this morning, and it made a big improvement. This was the
first time since installation during the summer, that the atmospheric noise
was low enough to give it a decent test.
