Hello, I live in the northeast USA. I've returned to SWL'ing about a
week ago after many years away. I'm just a little concerned about
something.
Have conditions here for the past 2 days been very poor? It seems
like like everything died somewhere between 0600 and 0800 GMT, 09/16,
and never returned. I haven't been able to hear WWV at all except for
very short periods on 10, and 15 Mhz with very weak signals. I am
used to receiving WWV on at least 2 frequencies with good signal at
any time of day! DX'ing is impossible as there are very few signals
audible beyond the usual super-power broadcasters. Up till 2 days ago,
there were lots of signals on every band!
The only other possibility is that my radio has died. My longwire
antenna is still up and in good condition, and there haven't been any
electrical storms to fry the radio's front-end.
