Re: [IRCA] Florida graveyarder into Michigan last night



Very nicely done, Tim!  My lifetime graveyard distance record belongs to a reception of KOTS-1230 Deming, New Mexico that I got from Millard (a section of west Omaha), Nebraska.  893 miles.  That was accomplished, by the way, in late August 2002, nowhere close to the typical "dead of winter" peak for graveyard receptions that normally happens in early February.

Subject: [IRCA] Florida graveyarder into Michigan last night

Interesting auroral conditions early yesterday evening stirred up WMMB on
1240 from Melbourne, Florida, busting my previous distance record of 962
miles when KANE (also on 1240) was heard here during similar conditions a
few years ago.  WMMB comes in at 1,088 miles and is now my furthest GY
catch.  Here's a Perseus recorded video of the excitement:

1400 WJQS out of Jackson, MS. also made it here last night and was another
new GY catch at 782 miles and now my furthest on 1400.
