SDR Recorder Grab

No Joy in the Chicago area.

If this really is RTN on 6940 ? Was on the same frequency last night, too.

0411 - First noticed distinct carrier with no audio.
0648 - Carrier gone.

SDR recording catch. Weak at sign on, but getting stronger over time. Pretty good by 0530, and S8 by 0600.
