I saw it also with an e-field probe (LF Engineering).

Accurately 25.2.  Using a GPS disciplined 10 MHz clock on the receiver here.
By the way, last summer I drove from VA to ND just to see the La Moore
tower.

I have interference from some local thing here on that (and also on 76.2 kHz
here so I cannot relly look at it.

518 looking good here in VA at the moment, but it is NMN transmitting.

I found it interesting that New Orleans knew of the FCC looking into the
problem on 518 kHz but not apparently realizing it was them.
