Thought I'd check out 770 here at 1345 and found KUOM, University of

Quite surprised at the signal strength, using the Drake R8 and 200' W-E wire.

Nice catch, especially during the daytime. Was that 1345 zulu (0945
EDT)? I'm assuming it was ground wave and not some bizarre post-
sunrise burp of the ionosphere. IIRC, Michigan recently had a soaking
rain, so maybe ground conductivity is extra good. I've heard them here
in Ohio at sunset.
