Overall, they were far weaker than the HAARP, so I simply ignored them. Yes, 7407.5 was far weaker overall. HAARP paused for 30 seconds at the BOH, before continuing. 7407.5 didn't suffer from any interference otherwise hear, although I could sure see signals on the SDR (esp 7405).......Walt. _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com
