Title: Morning listening
Post by: Seamus on November 20, 2009, 1408 UTC
This morning's run of my list at 13:45-14:00 UTC yielded:

OK - good, readable signal, some fade
Blinky - strong as usual
Pike 78 - on one of its excursions down to 8000.33
TS - somewhat weak and fade-y, but there enough for recognition by ear
CO - strong and clear when the fade is in, nonexistent when it's out
OR - just peeking through the noise floor; just enough to see that there's something there, catching an occasional O or R, or parts of them

No F here in South Carolina, but that's not surprising - I'm not sure I've ever heard that one.

I have a lot of memory slots with frequencies for beacons that I've never heard.  Some of them I know are out there but aren't making the trip or are falling into my antennas' nulls, and many of them I'm sure are defunct - I need to do some clean-up.
