Overview
Data and code for analysis at https://mastodon.radio/@W1CDN/111723969200676208.
I'll get a blog post up at https://w1cdn.net at some point.
This is a work in progress. It is not intended to be immediately useful for detailed analysis, but to act as a guide for further investigation. As we figure out how to slice up and caveat data, it will get more organized.
