 Preliminary look says somewhere around N7UA  or Camano Island. I cannot
remember the ham on Camano Is call.
Anybody know either to have them check signal strength?

I make it about 125 to 130 degrees from Victoria, BC (local time
10:40am PDT, so, likely ground wave, but not strong).   The AM
broadcaster on 1680 kHz nulls a few degrees further south.

This is using a tuned medium wave loop antenna, so it doesn't resonate on
160m, and local noise tends to queer things in a more north-south direction,
but it seems to be a reasonable direction
finder otherwise.   A west facing Flag with adjustable termination
can null the signal also, so I don't think it is at 130+180 = 310 degrees.

best wishes,

The carrier on 1810.8 is still s9 plus 40db here (at 10:15 am), so I
guess he/it is local!

The 1810.8 carrier is S5 here in the a.m. and is slightly West of North
of my QTH in central OR.
