Doug,

SIW was on 185.185 kHz over night. It will switch to 185.299 kHz at 
1800Z today. The schedule puts it at the watering hole on M,W,F,Su 
beginning 1800Z for 24 hours. It's on 185.185 kHz T,Th,Sa beginning 
1800Z for 24 hours.

Nice 137 kHz QRSS capture by Paul of last evening's activity. Guess I 
looked too late because I didn't see XKO, just the 3 Paul got. Noticed 
that XES was sending regular QRSS instead of DFCW.

Decoded Upernavik/Disko Island, Greenland again on 518 kHz Navtex. The 
time was 0921Z so it's following the usual schedule of transmitting 
every 4 hours. Long Beach was still transmitting after 0920Z but the 
Greenland station was strong enough to capture 1 message anyway.
