[Lowfer] Daytime 137 Tests Wednesday?

[JD]

Good captures, Garry...a lot better than anything I got today.  Yesterday, 
the static levels were up to 4 S-units above AGC threshold, but only for 
short periods.  Today, 4 units was the norm, with peaks above S9.  As I look 
at the radar, it seems likely that was all coming from Louisiana and 
Arkansas.

I had MP and XKO for a while, but not well enough to decode XKO.  Between 
noon and 1:00 PM, the static became more constant and clouds moved in 
contrary to the forecast, pretty well wiping out XKO and making MP a bit 
more ragged.  I think I briefly saw XNS on the QRSS60 instance, but it's 
hard to tell in the glare of the car.  I'm going to have to review the 
captures again now that I am back indoors for the evening and see if 
anything is really there.

Thanks to everyone who transmitted today!  And also to the other folks 
listening and watching.  It's good to have some idea how far the band can 
reach, even when conditions aren't the best at the more distant points.

Tomorrow won't be a good listening day here at all.  Thunderstorms may begin 
tonight, and will be likely through tomorrow.  Firday will be sunny, but 
maybe too wet to enter the field; just depending how much rain the t-storms 
bring us.  Too early to tell about Saturday's prospects yet...they think 
it'll be dry and mostly cloudy, but I've no idea whether they'll be quiet 
clouds or noisy ones.  Either way, our outlook sounds better than the winter 
weather watches and blizzard watches that some of you are facing in the 
northeast.
