[600MRG] unmodulated carrier at 475

[John Langridge]

Yep and I don't hear it in daylight which does distinguish it from XSH/7...

Additional comments from Dave, N4DB:  "Hearing perhaps WU4 and a B and
a NA"..... No callsign in QRZ for WU4BNA, however...  Dave notes that
it stopped at 1017z prior to his sunrise.


73!
