I also noticed it Roy, enough of a difference that I looked up the power 
output in the telem and saw that at least according to it power has been 
dropped. I'm running a m2 436cp30 at 30 feet with a SSB preamp, and 
previously I have seen S9+ signals, the last couple of passes have been 
S5-S6 on a IC-9100.

  Now it is winter and cloud cover makes a difference and if I have a 
inch of inch around the antenna I hear  "nothing" and of course there is 
propagation as a variable, but something has changed.

The command ops are the only ones that can really confirm the power change.
