Despite a fair amount of lightning racket last night, VO1NA decoded well 
here at times using the deep search version of opera. Reception was via 
e-probe and an SDR-IQ running on internal clock (hence the frequency 
drift vs time):

Early morning signals before local sunrise from the 3 VLF alpha stations 
were fairly good. Overnight most of the western DGPS stations decoded 
too (WA, OR, CA, NV, UT, MT). That includes Point Loma, California on 
302 kHz - the previous night Miraflores  (Panama) decoded on that 
frequency for the first time since last Spring. NDB CHD in Chandler, AZ 
was copied just between NDBs CM and CO on 407 kHz LSB for a new one.
