Jay: I just took a look at your grabber. An audible listen with my analog 
VLF converter and ARGO as a frequency spotting guide  I hear MSK stations at 
18.3, 19.6, 21.4, 21.75, 23.4 and 24.8.  NAA is definitely not OTA at the 
moment. Interesting how strong the 19.8 station is for you and I have no 
copy, but the 19.6 MSK station is weak but audible here.  Perhaps the 
difference in reception is a waveguide~nodal thing.....I'm hearing 
"something" at 24.1 but hard to distinguish from local 120Hz harmonic 
interference....

73, Mike wa3tts
