On Friday I took a drive northeast to Paynesville to do VARA FM range testing.
I sent emails from the city airport (20.5 mi) then drove east on hwy #55 and went south on MN #4.?
About 4 miles south of hwy #55 I sent and email from the snow plow storage yard. (18.3 mi)
Next I went to Grove City's cemetery and sent another email from there. (16.2 mi).
Next week I plan to go further east and south.

One thing I've learned doing VARA FM from the car - when in less than S9 signal range, narrow mode works best.
