WH2XND was in there again last night on 136 kHz WSPR. Storms made 
decoding difficult compared to the previous night, but tried anyway 
beginning around 0900Z. Managed 13 of them between 0906Z and 1140Z. Best 
SNR was only -21 dB. I see Andy, KU4XR also got decodes too, over an 
even greater distance.

The 200 Hz signal on 135.95 kHz (NPG?) is still coming in strongly here 
well past local sunrise. Maybe it's filling in for NLK on 24.8 kHz as 
David suggested since that transmitter has been down for quite awhile. 
But if the source really is NPG I'm surprised it's not sending on 55.5 
kHz instead. Regardless, it's nice to have another signal show up and 
it's far enough away from 136 kHz WSPR signals that it doesn't bother them.
