Default reception has been good

Very good reception of both European and Asian targets here. We had snow
last Thurs (30 Sept), must be the clear cold weather since. Don't know if
this is the cause, but usually seems to coincide. Snow didn't last, but we
are getting 5 to 20 F/-5 to -10 C over night these days.

GEEZ. I thought it was cold here in San Jose. It's been getting down into
the high 50's during the night, 70's in the afternoon!!!!

Here in southern Minnesota, we've had a few chilly nights (including last
Friday, when it got down to the freezing mark) but it has generally been
very nice for early October. Yesterday it was in the 70's. Today it was in
the 50's, but then back into the 70's come Wednesday through Friday. The
leaves are starting to change too. No more bugs, either. I love this time of
year.

Without a doubt, this is the most wonderful season. No mosquitoes,
just cold enough to keep the windows cracked open at night, and
it's a great time to go for a drive along the river to see the leaves'
colors.

Now...where and when will I go fishing?

I'm heading up just south of Mille lacs this weekend for a little dxing,
fishing and duck hunting. Was 33F in Blaine this AM. Time to get the
snowmobile tuned up.

Now, that sounds nothing short of perfect!
I might visit the old quarry ponds South of St. Cloud for
some trout fishing.

I'm getting ready for ice fishing. Should be good to go in 6-8 weeks. Love
it when we get ice and limited snow for a while. Skate between the holes.

Agree, good reception..
Was out in the Midwest for a few days,
picked up 880 WCBS / NYC at night
12.095 ( BBC Ascension Island ) Morning & evening
and WBCQ 7.415 ( Maine) sounded as clear as a local A.M. Station Saturday and
Sunday night..
John Lightning had a great schtick about Cheney talking into "W"'s Earpeice
during the debates ( Mike The Joke Man's Stuff)
Funny . .

Dan / NYC (sangean 606A & 10 foot random Wire )

Not so sure how good that is. Reception of those stations is pretty normal out
here.
