Hi all:

I am not sure if the post I made to the list this morning showed up .. For whatever reason, I do get lots of 
bounced emails from my yahoo account on - ALL - email lists ( ??? ) ... After I got home from work, I checked
to see if " WM " showed up during daylight ... To my surprise, it did.. Identifiable signal faded down at 10:10 am EST..
>From there, I can see traces of the carrier line at 185.300.5 , and the FSK - QRSS Id at 185.300.8 KHz up thru
1:25 pm EST , then it faded out completely .. That is partially due to the tuning on my antenna changing as
the day wore on .. When I got home, and tweaked the tuning coil at 3:10 pm EST ; I started seeing signal traces 
again .. very weak, but there .. By this time of day ( 4:25 pm EST ) , skywave is kicking up, and affecting the signal..
It is not a normal thing for me to see lowFER signals during the daytime, so , Mike has really made improvements
to the antenna for " WM " for me to see it during the day at 289 miles distance .. As Mr Spock would say ....
" Fascinating ! " ... Keep it Beaming Mike ... hi - hi

73 all:
