Stephan: A capture from Garry Hess, K3SIW, at 0230Z last night shows the North American signals that were on. The XKO ID is shown at the frequency noted on the YV capture. See: http://www.w1tag.com/f
Stephan, There was a period of good copy here starting at 0100Z, but by 0200 the signal was not visible, and it didn't come back overnight. John, W1TAG Despite QRN and thunderstorms i intend to trans

Stephan, Jay's K9AY antenna reduced the noise from the west, producing cleaner copy than mine with a loop: http://www.w1tag.com/files/DK7FC.jpg Best signal was between 0200 and 0300 UTC. The noise se
Would need a few days to set up the RX chain as everyone is looking at 500/477 , but W1TAG is showing as monitoring 136< I was watching 477 overnight last night, but not 136. It probably grabbed the

Forgot about the split Opera band for the two data rates. The actual frequency tonight will be 137.621 kHz. Stick with 136.0 USB for a dial setting. John, W1TAG/WD2XES
Graham what modes are you checking ? OP4 and WSPR tonight. The combination of the 72 mile path and plenty of high-angle radiation from my xmit loop makes for a pretty intense roller coaster in the ev
Stephan, It was quite noisy here last night, with storms along the eastern U.S. In addition to the W1TAG and W1VD decodes at 0213Z, we both had decodes on the next cycle at 0245, and Jay had one at 0
Stephan, I tried, but CFH came up on 137 in the middle of your second run, and all hope was lost. Jay is 300 km farther from them than I am, and seems to be less bothered. John, W1TAG/1
Same with WE2XGR/3 on January 8 and 20, 2012. Then WE2XGR/6 got into it, and had numerous TA reports on 600 meters in January and February. He has the advantage of substantial ERP. John, W1TAG / WE2X

WD2XES will be running Opera 32 tonight on 137.561 kHz, starting before 2300 UTC. A USB dial frequency of 136.0 kHz should be fine. If Warren runs WD2XGJ, it should make an interesting comparison, th
Stephan, Home is in Holden, Massachusetts (FN42ch), and summer weekends/holidays are in Raymond, Maine, about 200 km closer to you. The Maine QTH is inland, at a lake, and is definitely LF-quieter th
