ZN sure gets around... heard this morning on 4096.27 using the AirSpyHF+ and Crossed Parallel Loop antenna.

Also hearing A on 2097 and Windy on 4102.8 at the same time.

I remember some beacons around 8 MHz... are they still active?

And now ZN is on 4100.0 as of 1244z.  Someone's watching this forum, I think  ;D

Actually it sounds more like NZ than ZN to me.

ZN is on 4101 this morning, 1255z on 4 Dec 2017. Weak, but it's there.
