Not a trace in the spectrogram on 477.7 kHz here yet ... but that would 
have been very optimistic, considering the QRN.

Only "RP" (beacon) happily beeping away .

A minute-long continuous carrier later at night may have the chance to 
get through and give us an idea about the signal level... and how many 
dBs are missing for audible copy ;-)


73,
