Congratulations J.B. on Bermuda, Navtex. I've found that one very tough, 
even with a directive loop antenna, because Miami always seems to 
transmit on top of it. So much for time sharing, hi!

HF has been poor of late too. There may be some new sunspots but 
propagation has a long way to go to get near the 1958 peak. Spent today 
running WSPR on 10 meters and haven't had a single decode, TX or RX. A 
few US stations worked Uruguay but that's about it.

73, Garry, K3SIW, EN52ta, Elgin, IL
