Spring Antenna Maintenance Delayed By Chicks
Time to get the tree cutting equipment out again. That enormous conifer on the neighbour's garden continues to eat my Körner 9.2 antenna's front director. The front director surely cannot withstand another straightening. Time to deploy the tree cutting equipment again.
The conifer has to go, but not yet. :O(
This time I intended to cut down two of the main branches, close to the base of the conifer. Well, that was the plan, but I had to down tools when I heard lots of tweeting. No, nothing to do with the social media site, but a nest of birds, deep within the tree. Mother was at the top of the tree, waiting for me to disappear so she could feed them.
In the meantime, I daren't move my 9.2 further clockwise than 180 degrees. Hopefully, the birds will have flown their nest soon. :O)

Peak reception time was around 0430 with some good TA signals. Nice to hear a CKGM 690 push its way through the 5-Live splatter on 693 at 0430.
I occasionally hear oldies on 980 when conditions are good to North America. This morning had this mystery station coming in well around 0430, but the peak coincided with the middle of a song. I suspect this is CHRF Montreal but I can never find an ID.
Plenty of other frequencies were alive with North American signals just before local sunrise. Sadly, many of them faded perfectly for the top of the hour, as is all too frequently the case.
