Is OK OK?
« on: January 24, 2011, 0114 UTC »
OK was one of the first HF beacon's I've ever heard, and it was pretty strong. I don't know if the band conditions stink so bad, or my radio might have some kind of problem, but I haven't heard OK in quite some time. Has anyone else heard it recently?

Hi, I just checked on OK and it is in there. Frequency is 3449.83 khz USB mode.
It's almost s5 here in Harrisburg Pa tonight, my noise level has fallen below s5 for the first time in a couple of months so I'm trying to make hay while the sun shines. 
oops time is 0321z now,

That's good to hear, I need to either re-appraise my antenna situation, or get my front end checked.
