I also have been seeing it here on and off for the past week or so.  I
can often see two carriers, one a bit above .302, and the other a bit
below .302.  Sometimes one or the other will be quite strong and at
other times just above the noise level.

I'm also copying on 185.5, but no signals seen there so far.


On another note - I just completed mechanical construction of a two-turn
ten foot diameter shielded loop antenna made from 1/2" diameter CATV
aluminum hardline.  Now I have to build the capacitor switching unit for
tuning it.  The antenna weighs 25 pounds, and the base and mast weigh in
at 88 pounds.  It's semi-portable!!  <G>  Pix to follow, eventually!
