The band dropped out on me a few minutes ago, and the VOA out of Botswana is
competing head to head with WBCQ!

I was doing fine until 0200UTC then I lost the signal all together. I was
listening to VOA 50's style American music. At 0130 they ID'd as VOA. Maybe I
wasn't even listening to WBCQ? Shortwave can sure be confusing!!!!

I have to do something about my antenna situation.
