You mentioned the setup is destined for Walt's  cabin so I assume your Victoria 
antenna and attenuation and orientation are not what matters.
They don't apply to Walt's cabin, right?

Uhm Walt?

We have all kinds of ideas for antennas - but likely N or NW FLAG OR KAZ.

I’m more interested in whether you can connect and how fast the connection is.

Thanks Charles.

So should we ignore the antenna, orientation  and attenuation aspects and just 
comment on connectivity?

I’ve had a few email - my KIWI WEBSDR is not located at the University of 
Victoria -

It’s located at my semi rural home about 4 km away. 

It’s only on a few hours a day - working out various connectivity issues with 
it — and getting the best antenna relationship with it. 

Stay tuned... so to speak.

It will be interesting to get a comparison of DU reception 
Walt...if/when conditions improve.


With Juan de Fuca Strait just down the road from you, I would hope 
that your DU reception should be superior  to mine and to Colin's.
