Hi Doug,

I have to smile. It's actually an exciting night.
There is stronger QSB but nice signal levels between that. Also Mike/G3XDV is transmitting and well above the noise. I just saw him on the VE1VDM grabber.
Vernon reported i am audible in Nova Scotia, so that's OK ;-)
The farer to the west, the closer comes the path to the auroral oval where a lot seems to go on these days. But the signal made it to UA0SNV again, just got that screenshot from Vasily: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19882028/LF/capt2229.PNG
It's one step to JA7NI from there and it is a very good indicator for possible DX...

73, GL, Stefan

PS: I switched to DFCW-90 a while ago. Your settings are fine. 90 dot normal would be an alternative.

I'll be watching.
That gives me an entire 6Hz of bandwidth in my ARGO window, centered on 136.172kHz.

No, QRSS-60. I could also switch to DFCW-90 which may be a bit more efficient.

Look at UA0SNV, propagation seems to be better than i expected :-) http://dl.dropbox.com/u/47550836/UA0SNV_LF_Grabber.html
