Default Longwave stations strong this morning

John - a longwave DXer associate of mine said they were all in eastern
Russia because that is the only propagation path that is still
completely in darkness at 1300 UTC. I would highly doubt that I could
hear the ones you mentioned when it is daytime there due to typical LW
propagation. I could be wrong, however.

LW stations on 153, 180, and 189 kHz were quite strong at 1300 UTC this
morning, particularly the station on 153 kHz (S-8). Does anyone have
any idea where they are. Language sounded Russian or Eastern Euro.
