Title: 6942 kHz - Please check if you can hear this station in the daytime
Post by: ChrisSmolinski on June 03, 2015, 1235 UTC

A few days ago, a UTE popped up around 6942 kHz. I logged it here: http://www.hfunderground.com/board/index.php/topic,22012.0.html

I'd greatly appreciate it if folks could check for reception of this station during the daytime. If we can get reports from people who can receive it during the daytime, we may be able to roughly pin down the location. Likewise, if you CANNOT hear it, please also post in the above thread. Please indicate your location (city and lat/lon would be great, if you want to be vague that is OK, lat/lon to a degree or so would be fine), as well as the time and how well the station is coming in.  If you can check several times during the day, that would be ideal, as NVIS propagation can vary quite a bit.

Please post your logs in that thread, not here. I'm posting this message here, so more people are likely to see it :-)  I'll remove this post in a few days.

Update: The station went QRT at 1338z.
