It could have very well been the multi path you are describing Jay, it does
make for some strange sounding audio for sure. Warble is the best way I can
describe it.

I just got done putting up my beam about a half hour ago and sat down for
some lunch, and of course the band is quiet over here for the time being.
Maybe we can stir 'em up later.

Hi again, Jay

It's been scary quiet over here so far but it's the same in my portable. I
did make a couple three local contacts tho, and tried both the horizontal
and vertical elements with good reports. The swr barely moves on either
too..so far so good.. I need a band opening to really try it out.

I'll leave you know via the airwaves if it's really working, Jay.
