I like to see the "scanner" and other frequency lists. I would not object to a net.swl group either. If that is not practical for some reason, then it best belongs here, I think. By the way, last nite I heard a station on 179 kHz. It was WGU20 and they gave the time every 10 seconds.. I have heard this station in years past. I think they are in New Jersey and it is run by NOAA. Anyone got any info on it??????? (They were 10 over S-9 on my R-1000 with a 25 foot vertical and a tuner but I could not find them on my early 70's vintage Zenith Transoceanic). Bob K9EUI
