All,

That used to be NAA's regular frequency back in the CW days, if memory 
serves. They were nicely copyable on an audio amplifier with an RF choke 
across the input, and a wire (or finger) on the hot side. Of course, my 
hearing was a bit more broadband back in the '60s...
The code groups made great CW practice on a 1-transistor regen receiver 
when I was in college.
