well by work i seem to mean I can hear all the guys with amplified gear. in
the east side of the mid south and as far as NY, I do not seem to hear who
they are talking to, so there is an order of magnitude I am missing with
my experiments. I need to take my antennas to a park and see what they do
because I an not sure about the steel roofs and powerlines in my yard.
