Not looking good here either - 
besides new solar install to my northeast, 
and new arcing pole to east, plus old 
faulty LED streetlamp to southwest, 
I'm practically deaf on 6 and 2M now. 
I'll work who I can but if I don't hear you 
or throw in the towel early you'll know why. 
I'll look at ON4KST occasionally but can't 
stay glued to a chat page - it's not radio.
