Gang,
Just for fun I just tried to see if I could hear the signal on 24 kHz
using my GPS referenced HP-3586B and a HP-3336A also GPS locked to
compare the I.F. frequency using a 1:1 Lissajou pattern. It's 7:30
AM here in Los Angeles. I heard a signal but I doubt that it was
NAA. What time of the day would be best, probably when the entire
path is dark? My antenna is a dipole about 30-feet on a side, which
is really all I've got up at the moment. It's orientation favors
that part of the country. I hear WWVB at 60 kHz almost all the time
with that antenna. WWVB is quite recognizable because of the phase
shift signature as seen on my X-Y display.

Ha! At VLF you could probably bury your antenna in a grounded, steel pipe 4
feet into the ground and still hear NAA.

I LOVE curious... :-)
