    Some old and new ETS 6 (94-56A, 23230) data.
    
    yyyy/mm/dd
    2000/01/02 UTC
     4:12:28.68 - 4:13:59.18, eight one-power flashes
     Location 29.40N, 98.66W, 180m (San Antonio, Texas)
    
    2000/01/05 UTC
     4:01:02 - (unrecorded time), nine one-power flashes
     (8 * 11.3 = 90.4 seconds; 4:01:02 - 4:02:32.4 approx.)
     Location approx. 30.31N, 97.73W, 150m (Austin, Texas)
    
    After three weeks the one-power flashes are occurring
    roughly 70 to 80 minutes earlier -- getting kind of 
    early for the USA west coast.  Here are last night's
    data:
    
    2000/01/26 UTC, two one-power flash episodes
     2:42:27.56 - 2:43:23.81 (six flashes)
     2:51:45.06 - 2:53:15.16 (nine flashes with phase shift)
     Location 30.3086N, 97.7279W, 150m (Austin, Texas)
    
    Clicks from last night's second episode demonstrate a 
    "phase shift" (?).  Click number 14 was 1.25 cycle:
    
    Click  "Lap"   Time UTC (about .06 late)
    08             2:51:45.14
    09     11.30   2:51:56.44
    10     11.16   2:52:07.60
    11     11.24   2:52:18.84
    12     11.22   2:52:30.06
    13     11.31   2:52:41.37
    14     15.33   2:52:52.70
    15     11.24   2:53:03.94
    16     11.22   2:53:15.16
    
    Next evening USA pass is Friday, Jan. 28 (local).
