Mike, All,
It worked! Thanks to the successful (and unsuccessful) observers. I
agree that this had less to do with ionospheric prop than the lower
noise level before dawn. There were a number of reports from the U.S.,
but with poor SNR's, due to storm activity.
I'm not sure if I can do a repeat tonight. There would have to be a late
start, and the weather may be a factor. Will advise later.
