Hi Roelof,

Which NDB's in Newfoundland have you heard? I am sending a CW/QRSS10
beacon on 477.7 kHz.

Hello Stefan,

I am missing the patience to monitoring 137 kHz and 470 kHz all the time.
However, I have been monitoring every night reception of Canadian NDB's for years. So far Summer reception has been excellent and every night there has been propagation from Newfoundland to the Netherlands. Th reception window is quite narrow now and is best between 01:30 to 02:30 UTC. At times signals have been quite strong (I am talking about aural copy).

So you might try to contact Joe, VO1NA with one of the faster QRSS modes for a real time QSO! Greyline propagation is good now and I do receive stations that are much rarer in winter! It might also be interesting to note which band is better at this time of the year 2200 m or 630 m!
My guess is 2200 m, but I can be completely wrong.
