Was looking at 12 meters just now and heard a harmonic of WWV. Moved the dial to 25 MHz and wow, WWV is booming into SC fantastically! I don't believe I have ever received WWV on 25 MHz this well before. Its 18:45 UTC on 1March2024.
ETA: I am using an ICOM 7300, antenna is a 160 to 6 meters Buckmaster rated for 3K watts. The signal is bouncing from +9 to 20+ over. Still going strong with no static...

2/29 @ 1500utc, I had WWV 25 MHz slamming in 30 Db above the noise floor. little fading.
Strongest signal I had from 2 to 29 MHz. Unusual for me as the ambient noise is S7 and a very poor makshift longwire.
This is in SE Idaho with a Kenwood TS-440s.
Getting some usable FT8 on 160 meter, also unusual.
