Hi Garry, Lowfers, I took a cue from you and set up Navtex before heading for the nest last eve (Sept. 5-6th.) and upon checking this morning I was pleased to see that Astoria, OR and Bermuda where decoded. Maybe we're in for a good season of LF and MF activity with the shorter days coming. 73, J.B., VE3EAR LowFER Beacon "EAR" 188.830 kHz. QRSS30 EN93dr
