Excellent Dave - tks.
Yes, just in the noise - no chance with previous
qrp pwr.
73, Rog.
P.S. Dial-up here so only connect
occasionally.

I am still copying Roger GW3UEP in the middle of the day. Find
attached a short .mp3 recording made at 1030z (hopefully small enough to
go through the reflector. I have put a slightly longer version along with my
other recordings at http://my.opera.com/davews/blog/ This
was using my 200Hz filter in the K2 and with its KAF2 audio filter to reduce
the audio bandwidth - just hovering around the noise most of the time but
clearly copyable.
Not sure of your QTH Roger and you don't appear in
qrz.com. A locator would be useful so I can work out the distance between
you and Bracknell (IO91PJ).
I am not really that convinced that there
is a daytime cliff edge effect on 500kHz. I can certainly copy quite a few
stations at considerable distance and consistently. 'HXO is still easy copy
up the band though somewhat weaker than earlier. Who I don't copy well
at the moment is Finbar and although I copy DI2BE well at night I have
not heard SM6BHZ for a while - it may be that he is in permanent daylight
this time of year.
