Incredible. And I am on digital almost every morning and evening, and never hear these ubiquitous signals for the past four years or so. Golly propagation is a funny thing, is it not? Pactor and Amtor are as dead as Julius Caesar as ordinary QSO/keyboard-to-keyboard modes except maybe for a few (read: FEW) afficianados perhaps including you. That's why I finally unhooked my PTC-II modem. That's why most digital ops no longer have a TNC operable in the shack. de Roger W6VZV
