I meant to post smething on this post last week...

With the issue of high angle waves, I wonder if anyone has considered using a Time Difference of Arrival (TDOA)method?  This would entail creating a "system" with networked receivers.  The receivers could be set up within a region, like New England.  Perhaps a half dozen or so or more.  This approach is how lightning strikes are tracked and also E911.  The signals are compared to each other and the shortest path is the most direct line to the transmitter of interest.  This way there is no concern as to whether you are tracking an incident signal (ground wave) or high angle path.

With everyone on high speed networks these days, I think many people could contribute with a "site". 

But there is no free lunch as the saying goes.  I'm not certain this would work.  And someone would have to come up with some software and receivers that would be compatible.  One receiver that may work are the software controlled types from Icom.  They have an electronic interface (CI-V) for frequency control and signal RSSI.

Anyway, an idea to consider.

I listened to the net Sunday night and there was no interference.  I also realized that I'm pretty rusty on code reception.

CW is just a narrower version of AM

I did not hear it either Sunday night. Gone hopefully.
