[Spooks] Spooks Digest, Vol 107, Issue 13

[Zack Widup]

I don't think so. A CW net would be sending CW. All I heard was a few
single dashes. Two of them were maybe a second apart and then the next
one was 15 minutes later. Otherwise that frequency was quiet on that
night.

I have not been able to hear the usual mystery dashers at all this
season so far. I can hear the "L" station well on 6668 kHz. but none
of the dashers around 4080 kHz - I haven't heard the temperature
beacon, Kelsie, Hexie, etc. The "CO" beacon on 3449 kHz seems to be
gone now, too.

When I put up a new 80 meter dipole a few months ago, I thought it
might improve my reception of these beacons and dashers, too. But a
new antenna does not improve propagation! I also had the chance to
tune around for these during a lull in operating a ham radio contest
superstation about 100 miles from home a month ago. I was using a
foursquare antenna. I heard nothing then, either.

73, Zack W9SZ
