Worked it yesterday on 14259. Good sig.

Ironic, most people dont correlate the fate of the Edmund Fitzgerald with "still water."

Another Fitzgerald special event station, W0I, was also operating a few Khz lower.

I've read the story on the Edmund Fitzgerald. 'Experts' indicate she broke up on the surface. An interesting and haunting tale.
