DST had improved earlier to around -20 nT but has 
dropped back to -35 nT. This does not bode well for reception tonight ... but 
I'd be happy to be proven wrong. Recommend sticking with OP8 for 'local' work 
for tonight. Seem to recall I received Opera from EU last winter on both 137 and 
500 kHz so it's only a matter of time until we succeed.

    Ok  Stefan 
      
    Yes  , can  see  that  peak , may  be a  
    change to  OP32  would  decode in the  day ? , if 
    nothing  else  it  should  extend the  decode  
    windows !   but that  would  need  a little  
    pre-warning  to  ensure  all  monitors have  
    changed  over ,  would  be  interesting  with 
    the  band  'closed'  to  see  if the  
    extra  dB's  + time  , managed to  decode in  
    the  USA /Canada , but  I assume   dfc39  is  
    monitored  as well  , is it  showing  
  ?   No idea if someone in the US east coast monitors DCF39 
  continuously.  From my impressions about the chances of W1VD as the 
  receiving station and me as the transmitting station there would be a 
  realistic chance for a decode in the tonights condx. Jay, what is your 
  opinion?
