[Lowfer] WM and KE

[John Hamer]

Mike,

Yes, it is very interesting. I was starting to think something was wrong
with my setup. I am also not receiving many ndb's which is strange. DIW in
Dixon, NC on 198kHz is normally sitting right there on the screen, but is
nowhere to be seen. I guess it's off? I am seeing GM on 205kHz or 215kHz or
something which is in NC somewhere, but that is the only one. Conditions
just seem to be bad right now, at least here in SC.
