Re: [IRCA] [AMFMTVDX] WKDK DX test

Hi Saul

The sweep tones emerged from the soup once I changed my concentration. I was
focusing on voice when suddenly the tones got my attention. At that point
they were quite obvious. The image in my mind was a rapidly rotating beam
from a lighthouse in a fog. I was using a Grundig S350 without an external
antenna. I didn't hear the tones on a Kaito 1103. The SRF-59 is away being
aligned. (Thanks Gary).
