CO has been making into the east coast glad to hear it made it
into Maryland.  I grew up on the Eastern Shore of Maryland.

Just popped into the shack and found CO on 11002.85 pounding in here at the moment!  I do not remember the last time I heard it.  Probably last year.  Always pick the wrong time to listen for it.

It is on an interesting Freq. it seems to make the west and east coast often
I'm surprised no one from across the pond has reported it...
