Finally hearing some 4 MHz beacons 1150 UTC 16 Jan 2014
« on: January 16, 2014, 1150 UTC »
After a long drought of not really hearing much on 4 MHz, I have a few beacons this morning. Reception is still quite poor, they are fading in and out, and even when in are extremely weak. But encouraging that I can hear something.

4079.60 TMP - too weak to decode the temperature
4094.45 X
4096.25 Dasher  - Hexie?
4102.25 W Windy - not very windy this morning

Also hearing A on 2097.35, rather weak as well.
