No post-tropo flatness this morning. Instead, some good scatter!

The only other point I could add is that we have received two more complaints about my FM antenna, bringing the total to three! At this rate we are going to end up with more complaints than we did from our previous neighbours! I won't go into detail here, but I have written a full account here if anybody wants to know more.

Thankfully common sense prevails once again.

Good DX!
