I am hearing a weak carrier from the N.W. on 1814 at 0244z. I believe at one point I heard 3 dashes. It is hard to tell with the atmospheric noise. Art NK8X Kalamazoo, MI _________________ Topband Re

I noticed on the VP8 low band station diagram, that they were using 365 ft beverage antennas. Does that make sense, or should that be in meters? Or do they just use the SAL30? de Art NK8X ___________

I am trying to track down a similar issue. Some of it may be the neighbor's plasma TV, but I also suspect DSL or Cable TV leakage. I have wandered around with an FT-817 with a bcb loopstick antenna.
