I haven't looked since last week, but NC was typically starting the day up
high, around 490, and drifting down as far as MP on 460 when things got hot.
UWL was usually around 440, but could go up close to MP at times. GA was
pretty much right on 450, but was not often visible from Maine, as we are
too close. RY was off the air at the time, but it can wander +/- 20 Hz very
easily. The trouble with HF propagation is that the fades can be very fast,
and can easily turn a 9 second dash into dots.

Or a good summer cold!
