Hey Andy, all others,

Nice going Andy on staying with pursuit of RM and a cigar to Roger.

Confirm your report of good condx, with light QRN here in N IL.
To recap: I copied both RM and WMS last night and into early this morning.
WMS was still on at 2:00A when I re-tuned for WEB, but saw nothing after an hour of Argo display.

This time window confirms my experience in getting the best copy during the over-night hours.

Thanks to all the part-15 beacon operators, it's truely a slient vigil  -- but most appreciated!

Peter - N IL

Hello fellow LOWfers: It took some effort, and all the
filtering I've got, but I managed to pull in " RM " on
Fri. morning from about 1:30am till about 3:50am.
Signal was pretty good from 2:30am until it faded out.
The distance for me is ::: 879 miles ::: Not the
longest but very difficult due to all the noise I have
from 186.500 to 191.000 KHz. Still trying to get:
" COV ", " WMS " , and " WEB ". Starting to run out of
good recieve condx; static crashes here are up 30dB
since mid Dec. 73 to all: Andy - KU4XR
