I have been monitoring reception of Canadian NDB's every night for years now and I am sorry to say that propagation from Canada is very modest (read poor) at the moment. This does not necessarily apply to 137 kHz, though. The Kyoto Dst has been in the doldrums the last couple of weeks and is now back to normal. In my experience it will take ten days for full recovery and looking at the long lasting disturbances it might very well take longer now. When the band is really open, NDB's from Newfoundland will be audible here before the 8 o'clock news in the evening and lasting well after local sunrise. What we need is a quiet sun and solar flux below 100 (and low static). None the less I am happy to report just a single WSPR decode from WE3XGR last night! 2014-11-04 03:24 WE2XGR 0.475608 -27 0 FN31ls +40 10.000 PA0RDT JO11tm 5678 3528 73, Roelof Bakker, PAoRDT Receiver: PERSEUS SDR Antenna: pa0rdt-Mini-Whip.
