I've gathered a couple more reports from southern NH:
WA1Z (Windham, NH) reports a peak to the NW.
W1ZC (Mason, NH) reports a peak to the NE.
The carrier was S9+15 dB at 2 pm local time this afternoon with an
absolutely steady signal strength (no QSB). I took a reading on a simple DF
loop from my QTH (Maynard, MA) and got a heading of 355 +/-10 degrees. My
earlier report with my Beverages pointed to a northerly direction.
Doing some triangulation from these various reports puts a "fix" around the
vicinity of Merrimack, NH or possibly Nashua, NH. This location is
consistent, too, with readings from W8JI and from K1FK in northern ME.
