Saw Bob's transmissions on 166.5 last night at 5:20P on Argo using the
Vert.

Most unusual Argo 10sec display, not a clean, single horizontal dash as
others are. This was a prominent dash line w/ dog bone ends, then
shorter, less dense lines + & - 4 cycles, and the same about + & - 13
cycles. Also odd, these "secondary" lines began with the "main" line of
keying but only 1/3 as long. The space between the first set of + & -
lines had what I'll call as "hash" for as long as the short lines were
present. I have a .bmp image.

This may be the result of Bob being in Aurora, IL, about 40 miles E of
me. I could also hear the 10-13 wpm CW.

I recall back 2 years, Bob was sending dashes or "T"s with his rig.

Finally heard you, Bob.
