Mike, nice catch! I looked around that time too but came up with 
nothing. Not surprising since for some reason my noise floor was quite 
elevated. The lightning map looked fine (just some activity in the Gulf) 
but levels were jumping up and down a lot here.

Otherwise conditions seemed good to the NE. Saw traces of both SJ and 
TAG at the lowfer watering hole just after local sunset. Don't see 
anything from them so early very often.

474.2 kHz WSPR was quite a contrast to the previous evening. Last night 
signals from the NW came in well but didn't yield a single decode of 
WH2XND to the SW. Two nights ago XND decoded many times but little came 
in from the NW. WG2XXM was very strong as usual this morning so went 
looking for NDB IL on 278 kHz from Texas. Had never logged that one 
before but it was in there this morning. GPI on 309 kHz from Columbia 
was still in there too even though the sun was almost rising here.
