Charlie;
That's an interesting capture.  By far the furthest, best DX tonight.  I have been on all day and still on as I write this. 
I have been waiting all night for the signal to start to increase at distant points and the skywave keep gradually increasing.  So far-that hasn't happened.  The signal seemed to drop a couple db in the heat of the afternoon sunshine [went up to 20 or so here in the NE] and then came back at the beginning of darkness till now.  Jay's grabber showed no signs of skywave propagation-signal levels remained very steady.   No signals getting into the UK that I know of.  Hartmut Wolff's grabber in Germany showed not a trace of me.
Thanks Charlie and will try some daytime testing if you get the time-Bob WH2XBA/1 NY [XBA1] on 29.499 kHz QRSS60
Jay suggested not to change to 120 as would not make a difference.
