Another qrss site that may be of interest is Ralph's, W5JGV, online grabbers. Part 15 rules in the US permit unlicensed operation on 160 to 190 khz with 1 watt input to a 50 ft antenna.

This grabber is centered on the "watering hole" at 185.3 khz.

Daytime my beacon, WMS is often visible via ground wave( we are about 225 miles apart). At night stations up to several hundred miles apart are seen. Operation is qrss 30.
?
Best time of course is during winter months but there is propagation year round. Summer thunderstorms anywhere in the propagation area desense the ARGO but we have lots of quiet days.
?
Ralph also has a grabber on 137 khz, while not a ham band here in the us , special permission by FCC for experimental licenses has been granted to several US hams.

For more info on beacon activity go to ? or yahoogroups/part15.

Thanks for the bandwidth.
