Great catch, Colin.  I haven't heard them for years.  Funny thing, though, for a season about 3 or 4 years ago, I heard them virtually daily, well over CKZU Vancouver from about 02:00 to past 10:30 virtually every night with a S7+ signal.  As I recall it was around the same time of the year (March to April).  The following year(s) did not reproduce these findings, so I'm glad you heard them.  You may wish to try earlier.  I bet they're there at the earlier hours.  I'll give it a shot from my shack.........Walt Salmaniw, Victoria, BC.
