I know that many CW ops were
hoping that the use of continuous beacons just below 136.0 would
be stopping soon - especially with the return of CFH.
The reason for transatlantic QRSS operation below 136kHz is because of CFH,
which is located close to VE1ZJ and VE1ZZ.
Most of this operation takes place through the night. I have often seen the
136kHz spectrum viewed via Argo, with several QRSS stations a few Hz apart
(below 136) while there are no signals at all in the wide open spaces above
136kHz.
Reminiscent of the Mad Hatter's Tea Party from Alice in Wonderland.
