Re: [IRCA] LW BC 2/17/17



189 is excellent here at 0603 ut.
162, 171 and 198 have solid carriers.
DCF39 on 138.830 has data bursts very visible.
Even the time signal on 77.5 has a solid carrier.
Seems like a pretty decent longwave night.
Yet 1215 is just a tiny trace.
On the western beverage, 1017 and 1098 show a solid carrier (now 0612ut)
