Listened again over night for TAG (0300-1000Z). The lightning situation 
wasn't bad at the start and got better, but still neither decodes nor 
even settling into the correct frequency. Interestingly, tuned for WEB 
at 1000Z and found it coming through well until about 1015Z when local 
sunrise abruptly sent it under my noise floor. That goes against poor 
propagation. Perhaps I'm doing something wrong in the Wolf software, but 
the startup descriptor matches what I used May 19 when decoding was 
successful and the sampling rate is freshly calibrated via GPS.
