I do not think you are alone in having trouble hearing the sigs. As of 2317 I had 2 calls from local stations. Since then, just QRN on 80 and usb squeaks on 40m. I will try for some QRSS100 at 0130 when the event is over. Hope this is not too late for you. 73 Joe VO1NA On Fri, 31 Oct 2014, wolf_dl4yhf wrote: > Not a trace in the spectrogram on 477.7 kHz here yet ... but that would h= ave=20 > 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 ge= t=20 > through and give us an idea about the signal level... and how many dBs ar= e=20 > missing for audible copy ;-) > > > 73, > Wolf DL4YHF . > > > Am 31.10.2014 23:13, schrieb jcraig@mun.ca: >> Sorry Christian, that should have read 'In 4 minutes'. >> The beacon has been on since 2130 and I've been listening >> on 80 and 40 metres. >>=20 >> 73 >> Joe VO1NA >>=20 >> On Fri, 31 Oct 2014, C.
