I have a couple of captures to pass along in followup email..

Propagation last night was a bit - Uhhh, " not ordinary " ??
I saw almost NO traces of " WMS last night, only a couple of very
weak lines around 12:30 am local time.. I set Spectran to a 7 second
scroll rate, and set the averaging to " 8 " to try to " dig " any
trace of a weak signal from " UWL " out of the noise.. Not much
luck with it though, and only a wishful trace around 12:45 am,
what looked to be a partial " W " in the sequence.. again, wishful..
I looked for " PBO " a couple of times and no go there either..
The " WM's " didn't come thru, I could see the carrier trace of 
each signal, but no graphics on the screen.

The 2 signals that did show up were " SIW ", and " XDW ".. And this 
is where it got interesting for me.. A very nice pre-sunrise bump
in Laurences signal, and amazingly !! I was still seeing traces of
" SIW " at 10 am local time !! I don't recall seeing a lowFER signal
that late in the morning, and at that distance..

The next 2 emails will have the captures of " XDW " , and " SIW "
so as not to go over the attachment limit..

73 all:
