Mike,

You might want to pass on that his signal is copyable by ear in southern 
Maine, but he's about 10.2 Hz high, which is pretty far out for QRSS30. 
An Argo 30 second screen is only 6 Hz wide. I was watching for him on 
505.800 and of course couldn't see him. Then I realized that I was 
hearing the signal through the speaker! A DL station might not have that 
advantage...
