If you've never heard LP before, this may be a good time to try. I've been
listening to LP since 1310 UTC and it is coming in stronger than I've ever
heard before, equally well on 14487, 15682, and 16084 USB. I had the same
reception yesterday at the same time.

Yes, they were coming in well yesterday. A friend was visiting here and
asked
me
if I'd ever heard numbers stations before, I said yes! and dialed it up. It
was
his first experience hearing a numbers station.

Armed now withe the sked, he headed back to Ohio, and hopefully he'll hear
them
there on his Sat-800.

I tuned LP out before signoff at 1345. When I went back at 1400, LP was
barely readable on 14487 and not readable at all on 10426 0r 11545 (I'm
following Simon Mason's schedule) or any other freq. I wonder, do they
maybe change direction of the broadcast signal? More likely, prop
conditions crapped out.

I still have them here on 14487, 11545 and 10426 at 1426.

Reception of LP for me seems to peak around 1300UT and falls off drastically
afterward.

I've got to get some more wire up one of these days!

I typically hear them best on my 70' N-S wire. On most days I can follow the
schedule right up to 2200.
