Area 4, station B in Bermuda has been decoding nicely but haven't copied 
anything from station R in Puerto Rico for days now. Can anyone confirm 
it's off the air? Station M in Greenland has also been doing well but 
stations out west haven't. Only getting decodes from area 12 stations Q 
and W the last several days. Haven't copied the BC stations or AK and HI 
for quite awhile. Part of the trouble is area 4, station G in New 
Orleans - it's been sending mountains of messages lately and exceeding 
the 10 minute window even more than usual. For example, last night 
during the 0500-0510Z window it sent 14 messages, the last one 
time-stamped 05:34 10Z and repeated that message total during (after) 
the 0900-0910Z window.
