[600MRG] Dedicated WSQcall dial frequency?

[Alan Cooper]

WSQcall  signals I heard and logged last night on 476.04khz

These were single tone that changed by a few cycles every now and

Then so I do not think they were cw except for the ID by WA7MM

who sent a cw id on two of his transmissions at the end. {thank you!}.

I could only hear these by careful listening and every bit of noise
reduction

I could bring into use;

Equipment;

FT 897 rx with head phones

Two modified MFJ-1026 in series.

62 foot vertical with four elevated 60 foot ground planes. 

Location is between Coosbay, and Bandon, Oregon, USA  one half mile

>From the beach.

 I will be monitoring both 474 KHz and 474.5 KHz on separate systems
overnight.  You never know what might happen and I want to be there if/when
it happens.    No internet last night so I don't know what was reported.
Outage started about 0800 z or there abouts.

I try to act normal, but I get bored and go back to just being myself.
