I have the freq and time noted down at home (so will send it on later)
when I heard someone sending gw4alg netted directly under a DL - may
have been an accident!

But I was higher in freq, around 7040 when I heard someone sending cq
gw4alg underneath me well up from 7034, sounds like that wasn't you,
even if the first one accidentally was!
