J.B., that's interesting that all the US Navtex stations were down last 
night. I did indeed monitor 518 kHz a bit, but not for long because not 
much was noticed, hi. I decoded a decent number of messages from region 
4 station C (Moisie VCF), no doubt because US station A wasn't sending 
its long-winded usual string of messages. I also got decodes from 
Canadian stations H and P (and saw O key up, but too weakly to decode), 
along with R in Puerto Rico.

It will be interesting to see what tonight brings. I'm not aware of any 
plans to decommission Navtex in the US like was done to many DGPS 
stations recently.
