I listened to Rick for a long time tonight, waiting for his signal tocome up
above the noise enough to make calling him worthwhile (and to be able to
tell who he came back to).
After an hour and a half, I was getting desparate. I didn't want to miss
him, but I just couldn't copy him well enough to tell what was happening.
Finally, in desparation, I reversed my phased array and put the null in his
direction. This cut the noise down enough that I could copy Rick reliably,
so I started calling him. Caught him after about ten calls. I guess the
null is narrow enough that it didn't hurt my transmit signal. I'll have to
remember this for the remaining Foxes.
Thanks for the great effort, Rick.
73, Bob N6WG
