[Lowfer] WG2XRS/5 72.4 kHz QRSS60 on again tonight

[w1tag at charter.net]

Dex,

Copy last night wasn't quite as good, but there was still a readable 
signal most of the night.

The fades are very deep and long, and there has been an hour-long fade 
after sunset both nights. There is a similar fade in the morning, but it 
seems longer.
As of 9:15 AM EDT, the signal is still copyable.

Suggestion: There's no legal need for the "/" in the callsign. XRS5 
would be perfectly fine, as the FCC only cares about a CW ID every 30 
minutes. That would speed things up a bit at QRSS60.

BTW - the distance from you to my Maine QTH is 801 miles.

John, W1TAG/1
