[Lowfer] 136 kHz WSPR2

Seldom see announcements of 136 kHz WSPR activity here, but monitoring 
the new database at http://www.wsprnet.org/drupal/wsprnet/spots shows if 
anyone is on (the old database at 
http://www.wsprnet.org/olddb?mode=html&band=2190&limit=200&findcall=&findreporter=k3siw%2F1&sort=date 
does not display 2190m decodes even though the band selection claims it 
does).

Late last night I saw WH2XND was active so I tuned both eprobe/sdr-iq 
setups down from 474.2 kHz. Since I only had a single west coast decode 
on the higher band, and there was a storm not far away to the NE, 136 
kHz decodes didn't look promising. However, around local sunrise (1120Z) 
several came through. The best SNR was -23 dB and the last decode was 
well after local sunrise (1138Z).
