Hi John, my error, the peak tended to be at 30 degrees. Don't know where the 318 came from.. Too much prune juice here.?

I do not understand NE at 318 degrees¡­.FY7 is 129 degrees from Chicago.? So it should be a little south of east from NM.,? ?But anyway I played with it listening to my home station and it is not far off ¡­It should peak at 60 deg and seemed to peak about 40 degrees. The nulls off the ends also seemed about 25 degrees off¡­.. Not a big deal, and who know what propagation is doing.?

Query: This morning I was on 20M working a station in French Guiana, (FY7HB) which is off the NE corner of south america. However his signal peaked in a NE direction (318 degrees) instead of South from New Mexico
Am I pointing the rotor/yagi? correctly from New Mexico? Maybe I am confused since I am use to pointing yagis from my ex station in Maryland nr DC? I don't believe it was propagation causing an anomaly of direction.? Tnx
