Am new to this group, and was wondering where each poster is located
for
reference of conditions, skip, etc.

I'm located in Viera, Florida a new town, 18.1 miles due west of
Cocoa
Beach, FL (where I work) and ca. 50 miles due east of Orlando,
Florida.

Using a Kenwood R-2000 and MFJ-1020C for SWL and a Kenwood TS-830s
and
Buddipole antenna for hamming (which is very limited here.) Licensed
as
ham since 1965.

Cincinnati, OH, using a Grundig Satellit 800 and a 50'
long wire with a 9:1 transformer. Still have my old
Realistic DX-440 for usage with the kids, and a
Hallicrafters S20R Sky Champion in, um, a need of
a bit of work.
