What's the frequency, Kenneth?

Maybe put them in the subjects/titles of posts? I like to scan the topics to see what beacons might be running. I'm lazy  ;D

Interesting... I am hearing GT at 0147z. It is coming in with a fair to good signal with the NRD 545 and 43 mb dipole, but barely or not at all with the netSDR and sky loop antenna, which usually does much better at 4 MHz.

Fade in/out is when I noted greatest signal differences between antennas of different polarisations, however, both of yours should be mostly horizontal polarity, one with a high angle of radiation and one with a lower.

March 27 Time 1100 utc...GT sure was doing well S3-s5 on the old HQ180...
It surprises me that so very few reports have been generated...it has been heard in a number of states
and Chris has been able to pull it in...Chris probably could hear the Gods whisper to each other with his listening station and abilities  back in Maryland.
