Houston Report:
By my IC-706 S-meter bar, HAARP carrier was +10 to +20 db on Carrier 1,
and weakened slightly to S8 or S9 for second carrier segment, and then
QSB'd down right at the end of 2nd CW segment to only marginally
copyable. Antenna was my 40 meter Vee. Nice message received :)
..........

The 3.3 Mhz test was fully blocked here by Radio Guatamala.....

About 10 minutes before test, I believe I heard them tuning with small
signal, and probably 'barefoot' with only a 50kW driver or such :)...

And I suspect most folks found the HAARP web site with the
"fill-in-the-blanks reporting form at the bottom of the 'announce'
sub-page: http://www.haarp.alaska.edu/haarp/index.html

Has nice pix of the antenna array, and a site camera for semi-live pix,
a description of the setup, equip, etc....
