You're mostly skipping over me, Dickweed, just barely audible.

No sunspots. When does the RFW Longwave service open?  :)

p.s. We do kHz here :)

Just tuned in at 2354 UTC, and the signal's fair to good via the Northern Kentucky SDR. Almost no signal on the D.C.-area SDRs I checked, and no sign of a signal out west here.

Took a bit of hunting around for a suitable kiwi SDR, but the one in Concord NH is receiving this signal well.
2308 had to switch receivers, good signal now being copied on a kiwi SDR in Peoria, IL.

Tuned in around 0001 UTC on Denton Hill kiwi, 10 miles south of my QTH in Flint, MI.
I heard New Order swinging from jba to S7 and all in-between until signal totally failed just after the New Order tune ended. For a quick minute, you were pretty loud there.
