Kind of tough to move the beam quickly enough between
beacon azimuths,  however!!  Frustating to me,  anyway.
Of course,  I am alway interested to which direction from
KH6 land ought I to be winging by RF for best QSO chances;
maybe this is a different issue than the present topic.

Maybe should do this test using only a vertical,  since that
is what the beacon sites are using.

On the other hand,  Tom has written that if you can hear
the signal, then moving the beam to get antenna gain
to increase the percieved loudness will not help....hmmmm.
Seems to me it "sounds" louder if the beam is directed to
the beacon azimuth.
