Title: DIW ?
Post by: pinto vortando on January 04, 2021, 1116 UTC

Anybody log  198  DIW  Dixon NC lately, say within the past 10 days or so ?
Usually a regular in here but not lately.  Propagation good to the south this morning,
329 Charleston SC and 344 Jacksonville FL both booming in but DIW not a peep.

DIW has been on and off intermittently over the last couple of weeks.  I don't think it has been NOTAMed, just sickly.

OK, thanks.
Thought it may have gone the way of CLB.

CH, PKZ, FIS all with good sigs today 3-20-21,
propagation southward OK in spite of otherwise
noisy conditions so gave DIW a try... heard it vy weak
way down in the mud just after 0900Z.
This is the first DIW reception here in a month.

DIW with fair signal in here this morning,
otherwise not been hearing it the past couple of weeks.
Either the prop is weird or this beacon is sick.
