[Lowfer] Overnight reception in NE IL

[Zack Widup]

I didn't listen too low but in the 500 kHz region, WD2XSH/6, /7 and
/31 were coming in again here. Also noticed uncorrelated fading on
them.

Is the frequency list on the website www.500kc.com fairly up to date?
The three CW stations listed above are on 508.9 plus or minus. Those
aren't listed.

Some of the HiFER beacons were coming in last night. "OK" on 3449.8
was loud here as usual (I believe it's in Arkansas), and "MO" on
4077.4 was in and out of the noise. I haven't heard the temperature
beacon yet this winter. I didn't hear any of the ditters or dashers
around 4095-4096 last night either.

73, Zack W9SZ
