John, that's impressive to hear "NA" at your distance. I found the 
signal here improving with time and best around 0900Z. I took a look at 
the watering hole later and did notice traces from WMS, but not good 
enough to decode the CW. Since April is still a month with an "r" in it 
I will keep SIW going until May.

Conditions were improved to Europe and the NE last night here. Got good 
decodes of TAG on 185.8 kHz Wolf-10:

and noted 11 VLF signals between 16 and 28 kHz.

As sunrise nears WD2XSH/7 is booming in sending CMSK31 on 495.96 kHz.
