0549 signal just bottomed out, struggling to return
0553 signal hasn't recovered... just a trace on the waterfall when I check with the SDR. I don't know if something happened at tx site, but I no longer have anything to hear. Guess I'll take that as my cue to turn in. THANKS FOR THE SHOW!!
0558 I see that Skeezix is still reporting good reception. Guess the skip zone must have enveloped my QTH.
0559 What's this? Suddenly I have the signal again. Not as strong, about S7, but there it is.
0601 Taking another deep fade. It's midnight here. I really should go to bed. Thanks for the show Redhat and see you next time.
Video of reception at 0334z:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pL2E86S5O0The signal has been remarkably consistent all night. Some occasional fades, but mostly staying S9 +10 to +20 even at 0530
