[Lowfer] Fwd: ROU 153 kHz AM

[Gedas]

Hi John. That is neat that you are able to hear JJY so well. I suspect I 
could too but I have a carrier directly on top of it and the stupid 
thing has a ~1.5 PPS modulation to it. At first I thought it was JJY but 
after listening for it's CW ID and not hearing a sign of it I am 
convinced the QRM is over powering it. I have been trying to track it 
down and once I do I suspect I will do a happy dance.

This is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.
