[Lowfer] WD2XNS WD2XES daytime WSPR

[Andy - KU4XR]

No copy in over 2 hours now.. WSPR is a loooong way from QRSS..
If data means anything, then let it speak for itself for whatever
it is worth. Decodes started immediately at 15:58 UTC.. I am 
running 2 instances of WSPR. One is receiving with standard WSPR
parameters.. 2.4 KHz BW ( KU4XR/W ), the other is using a 240 cycle
BW ( KU4XR/N ). The wide WSPR application only decoded 1 time.
No conflicts between the 2 WSPR applications, they each decode seperately.
Here is the recorded data; again, for what it is worth, you judge:

Storms all over me today.. A good opportunity to watch WSPR under heavy
static conditions.. The disappointing aspect is that the signals have 
just disappeard.. No traces on the waterfall at all. Average S-meter
reading is S-8, with occasional peaks to 5 over S-9.. During storm
static, it can run 20 to 30 dB over S-9.. I'll go on the assumption
that it is just the dead of the afternoon, noise is considerably higher
today also, and WSPR won't come close to QRSS. But I still don't quiet
understand the lack of a signal trace in the waterfall. A 110 second
carrier should approximate ( I would think ) a QRSS carrier. They're
just not there, dropped out around 16:34 UTC, and have not come back..
Doesn't appear to be any space WX effects, so I'll keep looking, and
see when signals come back..

73 all:
