Figured Jay would copy XDW this morning as it was in all night here
fairly well. The DFCW was just below 185.298 kHz for the dashes (high)
and 0.1 Hz lower for the dits, which had blank spaces between them.
On a separate issue, 137 kHz signals overnight included MP (strong
QRSS30 at 137.7804 kHz), XKO (extremely strong QRSS60 at 137.7776 kHz),
and TIL (DFCW at 137.778 kHz for dits and +0.25 Hz for dashes). XKO was
so strong it hampered ARGO copy of TIL. It also mixed with MP to give IM
traces.
Sunrise conditions here were good to the west with NDB LLD on 353 kHz
coming in weakly at +402 Hz and Navtex $12O, Honolulu seen on the
waterfall (but not strong enough to decode).
