Closer in signals NAA Maine and NML North Dakota seemed more or less normal strength.

Daylight paths are up about +4dB on average over the past days with a peak at local Eu midday of another dB. Id dont really want to look at other transmitters as we get a lot of skew paths and "off the side" effects coming in from the loop. At least with DHO38 I know Im pointing my main lobe at it...and for its latitude is the strongest Eu signal in Alaska. ICV/GBZ etc are about 10dB or more weaker... Real time Wideband http://kl7uk.com/VLFAlaska.html and a sub on 8970 also....
