Well, most all the guys in New England see it peaking pretty much due south
- which suggests that the origin is off-shore in the Atlantic, rather than
on shore in the Carolinas. (Maybe from the "Bermuda Triangle"? :-))

How long have you had that Hi-Z 3-element  receive array, Paul?

Paul and Gang,

Based on Pauls heading and a few other headings that intersect Pauls
heading, it looks like the signal is originating from the lower half of NC,
or the NE part of SC that touches NC.

Hard to describe, but an area like Fayetteville NC to the North, Wilmington
NC to the South East, and Myrtle Beach SC to the South (maybe as far South
as Georgetown or Charleston SC if I stretch things a bit).  Still need a
few more data points, but the above describes the general area unless it is
out in the ocean.

Lots of headings that don't intersect Pauls heading which I had to ignore.

Don
