Actually off topic for this thread but it does include where I put the station.

As you may know my Motor home is a bath and a half model and the half bath is where I put the TS-2000.. Well.. The joke is "If my signal stinks... Just flush".

Where I'm parked now one of the park lift stations happens to be directly behind my rig, and under my 100' long wire antenna.. Folks are telling me that I"ve the strongest signal they have ever heard from me.

Last year I parked perhaps 50 yards from that lift station and ... Did not have nearly as good radio performance.. Same radio, even the same wire.. Just 50 yards away.

Perhaps there is a "Connection" between the operator's "Chair" and the ... Plumbing?
