Topband: Surprise! Spring Stew is here

I have to reluctantly miss the Spring Stew. All of my gear is 
operational, but but I have huge amounts of RFI from grow lights. One 
source is 0.75 miles South of me, while source #2 is 1.08 miles NE of me 
and in line with Europe. My noise floor has increased by 22-35 dB 
depending on how may grow lights are on at any given time. I can only 
work very strong and loud stations. IT is so frustrating knowing that 
all of my efforts to build an effective receiving setup has been 
thwarted by a number of related actions. Just listening to the cacophony 
of square waves is enough to give anyone a headache in just a few minutes.

The grow lights have been a disaster for me, and, with marijuana 
legalized in my state, there are new sources popping up all the time.
