Hi Dave etc.

I'm monitoring now, and will continue to do so all night. 

I'm looking at 503.5 +/- 50Hz with SpecLab in QRSS-3 mode. I'll leave it
running all night. I'll be in or around the shack for the rest of the
day until I fall asleep in the chair! 

Currently seeing something on 503.5, guess it's 'YXM, but not
really  readable yet. 

Should be interesting to see what pops in and out as the sky darkens.
Now we're nearly a month past the solstice it does get dark between
2300 and 0200 local. 


Regards,

John 'SLV
