Nice (or Not !) To see Results like I had in DN49 ! I left the Rig On.. 
and entertained the XYL by sitting in the front room conversing..! 
(well.. kept One Ear on the Shack..!) She even stated "We have to listen 
to that Hiss All Night.."!
Heard "Nada on 6M" !  Oh.. and the Non Radio conversation was so 
intriguing.. I even awoke at Midnight on the Sofa.. Still listening to 
that Hiss ! (She had Long Ago Gone to Bed !) C'mon E Season..from the 
results, looks like several are ready !
