 Gentlemen:
Tell me more about this Point Arguello Sounder...  I visited the Coast Guard Station there . and the A Loran.. when I was a student at Cal Poly.. a friend's "little brother" was stationed there and in charge of keeping the light working.. and we visited and had dinner and got the grand tour.. I still have a souvenir busted transmitting tube from the old Lorannearby was the huge  MOLE rocket launch pad.   AND  the SP main line goes right by there . and crosses a bridge at Surf. that bridge once was destroyed by a big storm. and they could not find the bridge and  had to build an emergency replacement bridge as this was  still is the main line.!!who does it belong to..  what is the long and lat etc etc..73Marc GoldmanWB6DCESeasideCA

 Thanks Jim - Those fo graphs take the "Bugga Bugga" out of trying to
understand when, how and why the "band goes long" for a given freq.  For
local NVIS (central CA/NV) from the Pt. Arguello sounder they pretty much
tell the tale and are reliable predictors...
When looking at an all-HF SDR waterfall you can clearly see the sounder
sweeping linearly up across the HF spectrum..until it peters out at the
higher freqs and heads off to Space.....cool...

Cheers!
