[Lowfer] Last night's TA 136 kHz in TN

[JD]

>>> (Not sure what that is in C, but I can tell you it's cold.)

Better not to know.  Bearing in mind that the Celsius scale starts with the 
freezing point at zero, knowing the corresponding negative number in C would 
only be more depressing. :)

There was frost on the pumpkin--and buffer amp and coax and car--when I went 
out and listened further, despite my better judgment.  Stefan e-mailed some 
of us directly during the evening about unusually good signal into the KL7UK 
grabber.  I didn't get the mail in time, as it turned out, but I managed to 
see some of his qrss60 transmission anyway, and a few fragments of BMU.

At the other end of the band, I had to turn the gain WAY down once Mitch's 
signal resumed.  Apparently I tuned in just after one ID cycle.  For a 
couple of minutes I heard and saw nothing at all, then suddenly "MP MP" 
blasted through the speaker in Morse and the Argo screen started filling 
with brightness.  Nobody else, though.

Up at 600 meters, there was quite a bit going on, but I haven't sorted out 
who was whom yet.  (A log scratched out by cold hands in the dark is less 
decipherable in daylight than one might hope.)  Whoever had the long, long 
string of WSPR sequences around 496 with no CW IDs for at least an hour and 
a half was very strong, but with occasional deep fades.  Two others, /6 and 
/31, had really powerful and constant signal levels.
