Sanny1,
Moving your setup to the back with open field will be a big plus for you. Where you had it in the front could have vary well kept you from getting a colony started in the past.
Did you ever see visiting martins when it was in the front?
Best of luck to you in 2013. Hopefully this will be your year.

Sanny,
Welcome to the forum, I hope your martins come in for you this year. I know it's hard to wait so long but don't give up. I had to wait 22 years before my first ever pair in large natural gourd hanging below my T-14. Unfortunately only the male returned the following year so I had to wait another 9 years before getting my colony firmly established.
Do you have gourds below your T-14, if not that may help you out.
