JW5NM is the big news here on the west coast. He has been in for
two nights running now and has been pretty easy for many stations
to work. Look for him after 03Z around 1830. He typically has
very deep and long QSB. If you call him and you hear nothing - just
wait awhile. He is very good about coming back to you again if you
don't respond the first time.
This morning, about 30 minutes before sunrise - the ZL beacons (data
signals on 1816 and 1819 kHz) were VERY loud. VK3IO was holding
court around 1832 and many stations worked him. The beacons were
much weaker just before sunrise. VK3IO was louder than some of
the west coast stations as well.
Still nothing heard from EL2WW - but we keep listening on 1828.5
starting at 0610Z.
