Bob & All: Interesting observation on 73~74 kHz with XRS/4 because I'm only
a few hundred miles from XRS/4 and DK7FC suddenly appeared around 0105~0110
UTC on 136.172. So whatever "Swiss Cheese" iono propagation was happening
occured slightly later in western Pennsylvania as well in the 136 kHz
window. I can listen on two LF freqs at the same time, so perhaps some
dedicated rx on 73~74 and 136~137 at the same time may yield some usful
propagation insights..... Problem on this end is Bob is so dam loud
here....time for the +17dBm mixer I suppose. 73, Mike wa3tts.
