A fair number of upper end carriers also noted here, though none were
audible as early as Don was hearing them. 1377 and 1512 seem the
strongest here at the moment (2230 UTC), though they were all louder
about 10 minutes ago when I checked. Hopefully a temporary dip.

Hi all:
Here's another strategy: I found that placing (secured with a rubber band)
my SRF-59 on top (dead-center) of my Quantum Loop head not only provides a
handy 3-D tilting mechanism, but also the Quantum Loop couples with the
SRF-59's internal loop to provide a lot of gain, even with the
