Hi Jack, Let's not lose track of why this is true, rather than fixating on the downside of alternative illusory explanations. We have DXers here frequently gushing about their shore installations. We also had reports from one fellow who maintained a regular schedule with an Aussie who worked CW mobile in his car coming home from work. Our man here could literally see the variation in signal strength as he approached or moved away from the shore down under. Now, this report is typically known as anecdotal. However, when you can repeat the observations and correlate them to your hypothesis (as they did), then such reports gain materially. 73's Richard Clark, KB7QHC |
