[600MRG] Reception reports

 Now also copying WG2XCT - I first thought the intermittent transmission was testing/tuning, but now suspect it is the super-slow CW mode.

Thank you.
Depending on the license granted to the different licensees, the ID may be
strictly digital. If you have an old computer with a sound card to hook to
the receiver you may be able to read the messages using WSPR, WSJTX2, or PSK
programs which are free on the internet for non-commercial use.
Thanks for the information. 
The extreme cold and blizzard has an effect on propagation that we need to
identify.
Happy New Year,
Pat WD2XSH/6

Tonight I'm tuning around with my BC458...I've heard five separate medium
and strong digital signals in the 472-478 kHz range but only heard CW IDs on
two, WD2XSH/7 and /31.  

Interesting teletype signals around 489 and 520 kHz

I've also logged about twenty NDB beacons located throughout Wisconsin, and
in Oklahoma, Ontario, Indiana, Quebec, and (best DX) Key West, Florida.
