Whatever the source, the staircase is  back, below XGJ.

I see  it again too, Garry. Only this time the "staircase"
looks a little different.  Instead of discrete frequency
steps I see the dashes are overlapping each  other a 
little bit so it looks like the transmitter has more capability  than
just stepping up or down in freq.

Warren has a nice strong signal  here tonight looking
at QRSS30. Last Sunday at high noon daytime I lost his  100
watts on QRSS30 down here but got him again on QRSS90 normal 
speed  mid day. I hope Warren can try a daytime test
maybe somewhere around 50 watts  with the JUMA TX.

Mid day between 11AM-12Noon-1PM seems to be the  toughest
time of day for long distance groundwave over 700 miles at  137KHz.
