Well, the SDRs really do the heavy lifting Gary. I mostly just pounce on where they tell me that the small animals were / are hiding. This morning. HLAZ has made a reappearance, quite good at times around 1545UT, (and still a bit readable after 1600UT), and a bit of audio on 1593 a little

If I read this mornings live hot sheet then there was some action at 1520 - 1540... NHP radar indicated sufficient signals on the likes of 1566, 1575, and 1593 to produce passable audio. There were also indicators of good carriers to possible hints of audio on at least a dozen other channels -- 1

One wouldn't know it based on the stores locally. Aside from somewhat smaller stick per store, there's not much different from a year ago from a practical sense. I don't know whose phones they featured before - if it was Sprint, then that's even less of a change. Russ Edmunds 15 mi NW Phila Grid F

Quite a lot of 1566, and a couple of others now and again, plus some carriers. Hope that means that things are recovering somewhat pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly): 1566 HLAZ peaked 1545-46UT with woman in Chinese over and around a v
