Users of the the Cleveland, Ohio node:

During the week of July 26th, I will be raising the G5RV antenna used on my PCR-1000 for Global Tuners another 30 feet. By the time I am done, the antenna should be about 50-60 feet up. I hope this will improve reception, especially for those users who use my radio for capturing Digital Slow Scan TV pictures.

Thanks for your understanding.

The antenna raising is complete. The G5RV antenna is now up 50ft in the center and 30 feet on the ends, thus inverted V (sloper).

I would appreciate any feedback if anyone notices improvements to the reception.

Thanks.
