I posted this earlier but it seems to have gotten lost along the way. 
Apologies if you get it twice...


The station ran WSPR continuously for over five days. Most of the time 
it was receiving spots from guys who took the trouble to let their 
radios run. Sometimes I got spots from far away places like the midwest 
and eastern states/provinces. Mostly my RX was compromised by the 
irrigation pump but that was shut down over the weekend for a while and 
we decoded some stations in the midwest.

Unfortunately due to an air conditioner problem, I had to shut down last 
night. The radio equipment could probably run hot with no issue, but the 
rest of the equipment in the room wouldn't. So minimizing the 
temperature rise required shutting down the WSPR run.

When I eventually get the A/C running again, I'll start up WSPR. I will 
also be ready for skeds, both CW and JT9, and possibly other modes.

73,
