None! Literally no decodes.

There is a large area of very slow moving thunderstorms in western MN that has been causing lightning crashes all night on LW/MW as well as smaller storms off to the east. I checked the recording machine to make sure that it wasn't in some odd state, but I could clearly see from the waterfall it is near constant lightning interference. During momentary lulls, could see some local NDBs struggling to come through.

Thought that too, but these stations are weak as it is and when I was watching the waterfall around 0815 CDT, it was clear that there was no way a DGPS signal is going to get through. Even getting a solid ID from a local NDB would've been difficult. Would take a while to pick out the letters.
