Here, we just finished a bout with -20 (celsius) temperatures, and to top that off, HF has been close to dead. The good news: If it isn't cloudy in your "necka," you might be able to see some beautiful aurorae tonight. A friend living in Beds. saw them last night, and described the sight as "vivid." Good Luck! 73, Steve Lawrence KAØPMD Burnsville, Minnesota "If a man wants his dreams to come true then he must wake up." - Anonymous Sorry to hear about your "freeze up". Sometimes it gets a lot colder over there, eh? It's rare to see anything worse than -10C here, and most of the time it's above freezing for the winter. On the other hand, our summers are rather cool by your standards; no air-con needed. ;-) Just read your post tonight. Checked the skies, no cloud cover but no aurorae. Oh well, maybe next time. Thanks anyway! Everything has a liberal coating of frost right now, as a result of the clear sky. My target this year is to build an HF magnetic loop by the end of March. Difficult with all the work I have right now, but will give it a good try! The design I'm leaning towards is based on copper tubing (purchased from "B+Q", our equivalent of Home Depot), if I can find the original dimensions, that is. :-) May also consider a fully-shielded loop, this area being bad for electrical noise. good DX, Ian .................................................. ...............
