Kevin,
I believe it is a coincidence that L1 has gotten better with RUDAK off.  We 
have tested this before.  I also wondered if the two were related, but 
tests earlier showed that they are not.  The L1 "rumble" seems to be due to 
RADAR interference which as been with us for several weeks and has gotten 
much better in the last few days.  L2 is slightly less sensitive than L1 
and does not seem to suffer from the interference.
