No go in SE Kansas. For the first time in some years, I managed to be up for
both transmissions, but S9+10 dB static was aooarently just too much. Got my
hopes up for a little while when Argo showed a slowly wandering carrier that
appeared about the time the second tune-up should start, a few Hz above
17.200 kHz. Unfortunately, it continued long after SAQ finished, so that
wasn't them.
Got MP on 137.7805 a couple times. It ws strong after the first SAQ try,
but quickly went into pre-sunrise fade. It was out of that fade after the
second SAQ transmission, but again faded partially to daytime levels, where
I continued to see it at mid morning.
Have a rare opportunity right now to view HiFER SIW at its current settings,
so I'm running multiple instances at different speeds on that signal right
now. Will look for some of the 630 m activity later today.
