[Lowfer] W?SR is Dogbones on the screen and still in there!!!

[Michael Silvers]

Hi All,

No readable XSR in California this weekend.
I may have had a discernible signal on 166.4999kHz
from about 23:30PDT to 2:15PDT on Friday/Saturday. 
Saturday/Sunday captures showed a discernible signal
on the same QRG from about 4:00PDT to 4:28PDT,
noisefloor seemed a little higher (6dBm) Saturday
night.

I may have captured those stronger signals Lyle
mentions.  I had one the entire session on 166.5026kHz
from 22:24PDT to 6:20PDT on Saturday/Sunday &
166.4990kHz from 5:59PDT to 8:47PDT on Saturday &
166.4991kHz from 5:24PDT to 8:40PDT Sunday.

The 166.5026kHz was strongest from 5:52PDT to 6:20PDT
looking like just what Lyle described a steady
carrier.
