Time to bring out the black book


 

In the past, I have like others had issues with RFI. When RFI's ugly head pops up I find myself wondering what I have tried in the past. If you are like me you have a hard time remembering if you had tried something and if so what happened. I decided it was time to roll out the black book. I will use this book to record what I have done, the results, and the steps I want to take. Recently I felt I had my RFI  issue resolved but on Monday while taking part in the Medium speed CW  contest I had N1MM macros freezing. The encouraging thing is this issue happened in the past and was terrible, now it hardly happens and gives me the impression I am slowly solving it. I have a few more ideas to try and the black book will help map a path forward in the journey.
