1098 is often 'seen' but not heard out east. I keep an almost daily vigil on 738 early am - 10-12utc depending on the season - and often see a trace on the Perseus screen if/when 738 is showing signs of life. Never any audio though, as you point out. Heck, even in Grayland it's hard to pull much audio from them -- lots of carrier but little audio.
Here's a sample from a few days running in Sept. 2010 when DU/TP stuff was coming in to Alexandria, VA as 'traces' -- no audio: <http://realmonitor.com/dutp.html> --- On Sep 6, 2012, at 5:25 PM, Dennis Vroom wrote: > Tim & Kaz, > > Happy to read that Tahiti 738 made it to the Midwest this morning.
