[Lowfer] Over night lowfers in NE IL

Cold weather with snow cover seems to have helped LF propagation. 
Started monitoring the 185.3 kHz watering hole with the N8GA Ohio 
kiwisdr and found lowfer SJ back on the air, along with TAG and WM (SIW 
was sending wspr15/opera32 onn 185.185 kHz). Then moved on to look for 
KE and JH near 181.82 kHz. KE was solid at 362.3 mi and first traces 
this season from JH at 462.5 mi were seen. I noticed signal traces just 
below SJ earlier so went looking for a kiwisdr near AZ in case that was 
from WH2XXP. There was plenty of QSB but WH2XXP was indeed in there and 
seen via the N6GN kiwisdr 648.3 mi away in Colorado. Nice to know that 
lowfer is still active. Most impressively WM at 944.1 mi come through 
briefly too.
