[Lowfer] WSPR 2 overnight

[Michael Sapp]

JB & All:  XIQ was captured several times here in EN90xn. First capture at 
0828.   Light traces of his WSPR2 signal started showing up occasionally on 
the water fall after 0500

but no decode until the 0828 time frame....all copied with the SW EWE 
transformer to RX and NE transformer terminated in shack (directive SW)

I was in omni mode from 0300 to 0500 or so listening on the NE transformer 
in omni mode and was hearing Radio France International well (Q5)

on 162 kHz on my second receiver and the usual suspects on wspr2.  RFI faded 
around 0400 or so and Medi 1 peaked Q5 S8 on 171 kHz for half an hour or 
so....

Strange decode on wspr2 the other morning around sunrise.  Station ID is 
obviously incorrect (at least according to QRZ.com) but if someone was txing 
at that time and within 3~4 Hz of indicated frequency here is what was 
captured....  BF08 looks to be out in the waters of the  South Pacific 
several hundred miles shy of New Zealand.... Most likely just a fluke signal 
capture.
