We are making progress in DFing the PC voice 
on 144.39 in Northern VA.  See the developing
OMNI-DF plot now that we have added in the
"nothing-heard" reports below..

http://www.ew.usna.edu/~bruninga/dfing.html

Of course, one has to be careful with null reports,
because someone may be listening on the wrong
freq, to the wrong signal, or at the wrong time.
But the Omnni-DF map usually quickly makes any
such errors obvious.

So far, it looks like the signal is to the S or SE.
