Hexie and Kelsie into Atlanta
« on: July 01, 2011, 1257 UTC »
Caught Hexie (4096.25 kHz) and Kelsie (4096.57 kHz) in Atlanta at around 10:20 GMT (just before sunrise here). Noise floor was S7 and they were fading in and out, but clearly audible at times.

Some of the others I check for propogation: No Russian letter beacons could be found, CHU was only audible on 3330 kHz, and I caught the CW ID during the SITOR idle from NRV (Guam) on 8521.9 kHz and WHO (Mobile, AL) on 8418.92 kHz.

Glad to be hearing something again, but the bands still seem pretty dead...
