[Lowfer] 185.3 kHz waterhole monitoring

[PAUL DAULTON]

I copied WEB all night , I noticed same thing on WEB at 430 am lasted one
 hour then Id copied until
630 am local.
Other rec was set on watering hole. Got bits of MP, CV, and Uwl. Signal
 strenght good on all three
but ID's broken. Missed dots periodically. Some wavy signal in about 1am.
 First time this year I have
seen CV and UWL. I am 200 ft from nearest neighbor. I have noticed noise
 on 185.3 before, checked
everything in the house to no avail. Maybe neighbor got some new toy for
 xmas. WMS is off so desense 
not coming from my beacon. I may be too close to Cv(254 miles) . 
I am going to leave WMS off for another night. and check again.

Watering Hole Denizens,  
 
Support Garry's report of last night. Missed the 11P-3AM window. Darn. But
 at 3A saw CV nicely. Saw a signal near MP but some noise lines obscured
 good copy.  
The "drifting signal" Garry earlier reported not seen here.  
 
Also, tried Jerry's link to no avail.

Jerry,  
 
Thanks for the response. Unfortunately I haven't been able to see your  
web page so far today. Will keep trying until the server comes back  
on-line.  
 
CV has been pretty good here of late - detectable most of the night and  
peaking around 3 am local time (0900Z). UWL has been noticeably weaker  
but it was in there pretty nice this morning, again around 3 am. With MP  
strong off the side it's nice to see three signals at once. WEB was good  
last night too, but since about 4:30 am (1030Z) it appears the keyer has  
been stuck in the transmit position.
