I sent this before, but unfortunately with multiple addresses I used the
wrong "from" so this is about an hour late.

I've been listening today.

I heard K9EA calling CQ/test on 50.135 (bout 18:45Z) with a good signal up
here in EN73. I heard numerous stations answering him, but he apparently
couldn't hear them.  That really makes me appreciate the low noise level
here (when the local electric fence isn't shorted). Currently I can copy
stations that aren't even moving the S-meter off the bottom.  That's not
uncommon with CW, but pretty rare with SSB.

OTOH I haven't heard a lot of activity in the last 24 hours..
