WD2XSH 500-kHz stations are on the air in force tonight, along with 
WE2XGR stations and WA2XRM, to mark the 105th anniversary of the Berlin 
treaty that made 500 kHz the International Distress Frequency. Logged 
here so far (all on CW) are:

WD2XSH/5, 496.5 kHz, 0205Z
WD2XSH/6, 508.8 kHz, 2345Z
WD2XSH/7, 476.3 kHz, 2349Z
WD2XSH/10, 477.3 kHz, 2353Z
WD2XSH/12, 499.752 kHz, 0235Z
WD2XSH/31, 477.88 kHz, 0002Z
WD2XSH/38, 477.798 kHz, 0247Z

Maybe conditions will stretch out as the evening wears on and WD2XSH/20 
in OR will be heard.
