[Lowfer] TIL Capture Overnight 9/17/10

[Garry Hess]

TIL peaked in NE IL around 1015Z, consistent with Todd's reception. 
Early in the evening until about 0330Z XNS came through nicely on 
137.781 kHz, QRSS60. A bit before XNS went QRT, MP began showing on 
137.7803 kHz, QRSS60. A long fade occurred later but MP recovered until 
1115Z when a second fade occurred. As this is written (1400Z), MP is 
again coming in well.

A fairly continuous signal was noticed beginning 0630Z on 137.7757 kHz. 
This hadn't been seen before, or at least not noticed, and it was still 
going strong at local sunrise. However, at 1400Z it's not visible. Guess 
this is not locally generated but don't know what Loran chain it might 
be from if that's really the source. It didn't show up on either the OK 
or AK KL1X grabbers and the VE7TIL grabber of course was desensed by his 
transmitter.
