Default Radio St. Helena Day!

Hi,

For some reason when the weather here in Windsor/Detroit is crappy,
reception for the most part seems to suck. We had heavy rain, lots of
wind and for a while t-storms. The t-storms were occurring during the
St. Helena broadcast


Oddly enough, about an hour or so later when I turned on the Sat-800
again ,
oddly, reception had gotten great even though the weather hadn't
changed!!


Why would your weather have anything to do with SW reception? (Other than
T-storm interference)



Wet power lines.
