Thanks for the quick response. FYI - Freq 137.780
and sending VE3OT and code speed is 0.4 WPM
Dots appear to be 2.5-3 seconds and dashes 9 seconds.
I will be leaving it on 24 hours - and seems best signals
and lowest noise occur in the early morning - though lately
they have been good right up until mid-day.
Using vertical polarization here. Power input 150 watts at
present and measured >80% efficiency.
Just out on a quick trip to the country, and great signal
at 15 miles - let's hope it goes a bit farther. I really appreciate
your passing the info along - with this antenna and time of year,
it will be a challenge. Mission Impossible 3 - hi !
