yes...very very close which makes me wonder if this is more of a 'normal' 
dawn enhanced antipodal occurrence and less to do with the grayline as their 
sunset was almost an hour earlier than our sunrise. It's encouraging  that 
their signal pops-up every morning on 160m like clockwork, right at our 
sunrise and then vanishes shortly thereafter...too bad their wasn't a MW 
outlet there to see what it does at the same time!

Yes...I have checked it out a few times when I hear some TA carriers to see 
what it is indicating. I don't really have a proper BCB antenna, other than 
my 160m wire, but am thinking about some sort of loop.
