Hello Jim.,

Thanks for the reception report. You are the first person from the
Cleveland area reporting having received our transmissions.
The WA2XTF/12 beacon is located in Front Royal Virginia.  We run 175
watts into a 1200 ft long wire, about 20ft off the ground.  (more
details of that particular set-up, as well as other LF experiments we
are conducting, can be found at http://www.amrad.org/projects/lf

Should you be interested in things LF, you can also join our LF
reflector, by logging on to
http://www.amrad.org/mailman/listinfo/lf

Incidentally were you using a DSP program displaying our messages on a
computer screen., or were you actually listening to the morse
transmissions (at a 4-seconds dot length ?)

Should you want a QSL card, please let me have your mailing address.
Regards and thanks again

Andre' N4ICK
