Re: [IRCA] 594 India into central USA?

[Nick Hall-Patch <nhp@xxxxxxxx>]

Thanks for the recent offset on AIR Mauno.   That 
should be very visible then, and I don't think I 
saw any sign of it yesterday.   ABC was quite 
strong and became dominant after 1330UT, but 
we're talking carriers here, any audio was pretty much in the mud by that time.

(Spectran is also good software for looking at offsets in the audio beat note)

best wishes,

Nick
