(meteorobs) WWV - useful as a 25 MHz scatter transmitter

[Dave Radomski - KTØH]

Might be a good idea to let them know someone is using the signal...

The past week I discovered that WWV, the time station broadcasting from Fort
Collins, Colorado, can be a useful transmitter for radio meteor observing
particularly at 25 MHz through the night.

I am going to set up a dedicated radio and directional antenna and do some
further experimenting. I will write something up with spectrograph specimens
and audio in the next week.

I would be interested in anyone's reports if they attempt to monitor at
25 MHz, aiming towards Fort Collins.

This would be primarily useful as a night-time transmitter source.
