Yes, to threshold levels even to 0100 re-check. Actually at 2330 they were to
beam to Northern South America, so that would probably be the reason for the
quick drop and also our local sunset as I noticed at about 23;20 things
starting to fade a bit.

Well by 1915 or so signal was fine and increased after the afternoon
progressed (and their beam came closer around to us). Great signal to levels
over S9 with no background noise and the only occasional data burst. Maybe
just here in western canada but right around 2330 their signal took a major
dive - S9 to almost nothing - as they turned the antenna? In theory they were
turning more towards us at that time. It was also close to local sunset too.
Anyone else notice this big drop?

Signal detected here just before 1730 sign on, but difficult copy, music
more discernable of course. I've recorded the audio but wasn't paying too much
attention to the signal from s/on to now - at 1900 some better but still not
comfortable copy. I have the log periodic aimed east from here but when I saw
Micks comment about 225 degrees I turned the antennea the full 360 degrees to
see if there was a better path, but while there was a signal in the SW area,
east seemed a bit better at this time anyway. But still only S1 and the signal
only shows a small blip on the screen of the Icom 7800.

Female and male chatting. Just above threshold. KLM Log Periodic Beam pointed
at 225 degrees.
RSH ID heard above noise at 1750 UTC. Signal building so should be good
when it our turn here in North America. At 1751 the tune Locomotion.
