More likely your antenna system. As a test go to the site on a day when it's really bad and unplug the feedline from your cabinet and plug a dummy load into the cabinet. Try the system with a handheld. I'll bet that it performs just fine. Then reconnect the feedline and move the dummy load to the top end of the feedline and repeat the test... ...and so forth until you get to the antenna itself. I'll bet that you have moisture in the antenna system somewhere. Mike WA6ILQ Your use of Yahoo! Groups is subject to http://docs.yahoo.com/info/terms/
