[Lowfer] LF signals in NE IL

[Garry Hess]

Didn't do well here with DK7FC on 136.172 kHz, only traces. Must be too 
far west. At that relatively early evening time NDBs from the Caribbean 
and South American were coming through. But signals to the east perked 
up nicely later in the night and all 3 Greenland Navtex stations on 518 
kHz decoded. While looking for CA NDB station MOG on 404 kHz LSB, came 
across IUB in MD at 1035Z. That station must have come back from the 
dead because the last logging for it at 
http://www.classaxe.com/dx/ndb/rna/signal_list was in 2005. Propagation 
from the east was good enough to prevent DGPS decodes of western 
stations on 307 and 313 kHz with an omni antenna, but the lone CA 
station on 321 kHz decoded fine. Lowfer WI put in perhaps the best 
signal I've ever seen from it. SJ and TAG were in there at the watering 
hole and MLS perked up as the evening wore on too.
