You know what they say gary, everything comes to him who waits. It's been a long wait so here's hopingyou get the signal you deserve.

Looking at the pictures of your place you posted the other week it looks like you're "montado en el dollar".

Gary, nice pictures. Hard to get a sense of scale though. Try posting a picture that is taken from the other end of the garden so we can see how it blends in with its surroundings.

Well done to you. What signal quality reading do you get on the AD box on 11766H? Currently getting 60% in the rain.

So that's stable lock with no stray pixels, then!

Great job.
