Overnight, I recorded the 0500 UTC top-of-the-hour using an ELAD FDM-S2
and an 80-meter inverted Vee antenna.

and less frequently, the Springfield (MA)
Most likely one of the ethnic pirates operating in NYC. Might be Spanish,
might be Creole as there's at least one of each operating there from time
to time.

If you want to do some more work, you can greatly improve that longwire
situation with phasing. You can either try the different length // wire
method I've used for years. Since your wire is elevated so normal Vp. I'd
suggest a // 700 ft wire to phase.
If you want a more broadbanded solution if yo
