We had much lower noise levels and better propagation tonight.  We copied
VE1ZZ all evening and at some times aurally.  We monitored the European/NA
band all evening but did not see anything.

We made a day trip down to Hatteris Lighthouse and setup our new active
antenna.  We did not see intermods from the Loran C transmitter at Carolina
Beach.  The active antenna passed an acid test to be placed in the teeth of
the Loran C like this.  It help demonstrate also how clean the Loran C
transmitter is.  I think it is time to freeze the design and let the rest of
you start building a few.  I will be sending the details off to get the PC
boards made now.  Stay tuned to the AMRAD newsletter for assembly
instructions.

We will listen for a few minutes in the morning and then will begin packing
up for the trip back to Washington.

It was a good trip this year.  We got to see a lot of pieces integrated
together better than before.  Now if we can just get an extra special
propagation night.
