Bob & All: Interesting observation on 73~74 kHz with XRS/4 because I'm only
a few hundred miles from XRS/4 and DK7FC suddenly appeared around 0105~0110
UTC on 136.172. So whatever "Swiss Cheese" iono propagation was happening
occured slightly later in western Pennsylvania as well in the 136 kHz
window. I can listen on two LF freqs at the same time, so perhaps some
dedicated rx on 73~74 and 136~137 at the same time may yield some usful
propagation insights..... Problem on this end is Bob is so dam loud
here....time for the +17dBm mixer I suppose. 73, Mike wa3tts.

Subject: [Lowfer] Hartmut Wolff's grabber...
Was beginning to look like a "dead" night coming up on 73 band. Up till
0045, that is, when suddenly decodes began to appear. Starting in
transmitting WSPR 15 at 2200 this evening no decodes appeared until 0045.
I went to Hartmut's grabber and the reason was obvious. A signal emerged
from nothing to what appeared to be a decodable one. Been that way all
evening with usual mild fading.
Activity on 500 also seemed to pick-up and Stefan was solid on 136 DFCW at
that time onward.
It's what I find makes these longer waves interesting, to say the
least-Bob, WG2XRS/4 [WG4XRS for short on digi modes] NY
