Tom, same here except also decoded area 12 station W. Propagation wasn't 
bad but the east coast stations were even longer-winded than usual, thus 
stepping on Bermuda, Boston, San Francisco, and probably others.

Spent most of the night tuning for NDBs in the 260-269 kHz range per the 
current CLE191. A lot of stations I've copied in the past were missed 
but managed to log 41 so far. No real DX though as all were in the US or 
Canada. The 475 kHz experimental licensees were quite active too on CW, 
thus 474.2 kHz WSPR activity was down. Nice to hear the WH2XDE/3 beacon 
on 1725 kHz.
