[Lowfer] Interesting 518 kHz Navtex signals over night

[Garry Hess]

Signals in general didn't seem very good last night on 518 kHz Navtex. 
However, Curacao, area 4, H (1 of 2 stations signing that letter!) 
decoded at 0913Z thanks to "local" G shutting down unusually quickly. 
But of real interest was the signal that came on at 0400Z before Miami 
fired up; it was Antofagasta, Chile, area 15, station A. And then at 
1210Z as local sunrise neared, area 15, station I, Valparaiso, Chile 
came through briefly before San Francisco fired up. Makes one wonder 
what might be received if all the US and Canadian stations took a brief 
holiday.
