We both were hearing HBG very clearly, and I copied Dex's 177.777 beacon at 0130, unusual for my location, which is noisy in the evening hours. This might be a good time to resume the 73 kHz tests, assuming that conditions continue. I have left my receiver on at home, with the screen capture running. On another note, I am fairly certain that CFH operates intermittently on 73.6 kHz. I have heard the signal twice, and it is extremely loud here in Massachusetts. Operation seems to be in the late UTC hours. Last evening, there was a dead carrier just below there, 73.575 (I think - Dex can correct me), around 0200. Again, it was strong in North Carolina, and very hot in Massachusetts. John Andrews, W1TAG
