EE OM heard on 4910 at 1114z, so possibly Tennant Creek as well.

Very faint carrier on 2485, no audio. I'll need to try earlier tomorrow morning.

Only a faint carrier on 2485 today @ 1028z, and fair signal on 4910 (fighting thru the windshield wiper).

Music on 2485 now, 1047z. Weak, but audible. 4910 much stronger, of course.

I need to listen down on 120m more often.
