To the crew at Nags Head North Carolina.
I was getting a bit worried but now very pleased to hear from you

Very good. Conditions here good with buckshot QRN - a sign of good conditions.

OK, Here are a list of stations transmitting tonight.

G3XTZ         137.780kHz
G4GVC        137.775kHz  Not transmitting all the time. Will be on 
later in the night/morning
G3YXM        137.770kHz Might get him to QSY in view of what you say 
about the carrier
G3LDO         137.760kHz
G3KAU         137.750kHz. This station should be running a full 
1Werp. The call might be G3WSC of the Crawley radio club.

Glad to hear that

Will any of these use

Any chance of sending us a GIF picture (as an attached e-mail file) 
of the section of the spectrum where we are transmitting. You should 
have lines of Loran sidebands if Loran is audible on wide IF settings

Fingers crossed.
