Re: [IRCA] DX Test - WDEV 550 Waterbury, Vermont - August 16

[George Sherman <georgesmn@xxxxxxxxx>]

Also in MN, may or may not have had code, indistinct if I did & not sounding like WDEV if even really code. About 11:06pm CDT, a couple 2nd tone. Then I also noticed a much weaker 1000 Hz tone, which turned out to be from 549, presumably Algeria, but not nearly strong enough for audio. Will be interesting to hear if it was on.

Shortly before the test, WBZ-1030 at S-9+10, & 550 jumble at S-9+20, but thought code or sweep tones might break through. KFYR-ND was dominant, with music & sound effects while talking about Area 51 in Nevada.

Using both R75 & CR1, switching Quantum loop between the 2. 73, George S.,  MN
