Dear LF Group,
 
I had  good reception of beacon signals from GW4HXO, GW3UEP and GI4DPE on Tuesday night / Wednesday morning - All the signals got up to a 569 sort of level at times, but with a lot of fading. When it started getting light, all 3 signals quickly faded into the noise. I have attached a snippet of the spectrogram showing the signals from GW4HXO (upper) and GI4DPE (lower) which illustrates the fading, with the time markers at 5 minute intervals. For some reason, the fading on GW4HXO's signal seems to be deeper than GI4DPE's, although both signals are peaking at a similar level.
 
I also had a good CW QSO with GI4DPE tonight starting about 2335utc; this had similar fading but never really disappeared completely, and was 569 most of the time for about 25 minutes. I am also hearing GW3UEP's beacon signal, which again seems to have much more fading than Finbar's signal did. 
 
Cheers, Jim Moritz
