Back to NK7U for more tests

Earlier I posted a report on the work done last October on the 80m 4-square at NK7U.  After that work there were still many unanswered questions so I and W2VJN went back to NK7U at the end of May to run more tests.  The following is report on that trip.Download Report on 29-30 May 09 measurements .  size = 175 kB.

This series of tests also generate more questions than answers but I think it may be interesting to those who might have an array near a tower.
