2235 Super weak here, I can just barely hear a voice talking in the static. I'll try another antenna.
2248 No better antenna than the 900 ft horizontal sky loop, but the signal is slowly improving.

Drake R8, Kenwood R-2000, Panasonic RF-4900, Sony 2010, Realistic DX440, Grundig Satellit 500, 7mhz backyard dipole, Mt Prospect, IL 20miles (32km) NW of downtown Chicago. I have been using online receivers because of strong data hash interference in my neighborhood that I believe is caused by Uverse squeezing up to 100mb/sec through ordinary pairs of wires. I don't have Uverse but neighbors do. williamhassig@yahoo.com

22:49 UTC - Sadly, the signal is not making it up to my part of the continent. That is unfortunate as I enjoy DJ Dick Weed's shows.
