A fairly quiet night here in NE IL produced good Navtex and DGPS 
signals. On 518 kHz decoded area-04 stations A,B,C,E,G,H,N,P,R, and U 
and area-12 stations C,Q, and W. Nothing here yet from far east like 
J.B. has received, but hopefully Greenland will show up soon.

DGPS decodes were noted on 321 kHz,#264,CA; 320,#304,BC; 316,#068,WA; 
313,#062,MT; 312,#074,NV; 305,#084,CA; 303,#174,UT; and 300,#172,WA. 100 
baud and 200 baud (Panama) activity was evident on 302 kHz but nothing 
decoded.

The WD2XSH operators were active and doing well. /46 was plenty strong 
on 475 kHz CW even with full 2.5 kHz receive bandwidth. QRSS10 from 
WA2XRM and QRSS3 from WD2XSH/6 were good as well. /46 moved later to 
WSPR mode along with WG2XIQ. Noticed WE2XGR/1 on 506.3 kHz early before 
storms forced QRT.
