The 518 kHz Puerto Rico station behaved itself last night so decodes 
were obtained for at least the usual stations: area 4 = 
A,B,C,E,F,G,H,N,P,Q,R,U, and X (partial); area 12 = C,H,Q, and W.

A quick scan of the DGPS frequencies around 300 kHz produced these 
decodes: 287 kHz, ID=061, MT; 288 kHz, ID=340, NL; 291 kHz, ID=055, NM; 
300 kHz, ID=173, WA; 302 kHz, ID=263, CA; 303 kHz, ID=175, UT; 312 kHz, 
ID=075, NV; 313 kHz, ID=063, MT; 316 kHz, ID=069, WA; and 321 kHz, 
ID=265, CA; Nulling by a small loop antenna was needed to pick off a few 
of the stations from stronger, cochannel sourcew.
