how about an S9 on 80M. i think the neighbor bought a new TV or the October snow storm did more damage to the dipoles then first thought.

You're lucky!

I get 4 to 5 S-units of static on my beam OR vertical every day for months.

The new LED street lights in my neighborhood give me 2-S units of noise after dark on the 10 meter band

Man I would return that radio. Should be measuring in s-units and not pounds!

Can some Radio GURU walk us thru what was happening.

Maybe solar flares? I am no Guru but the flares sure can make comms difficult.

Yea I am sad to say my 756 pro has lb's in the meter LOL.

I guess it is the old chicken band showing through, I meant to say S units.

By solar flares I meant the count is low, as is SFU activity, thus the decline or no propagation or very little dx, all is quiet on the home front per say. It will flare up again whenever mother nature decides to become active.op:
