[HCDX] Fw: CHU off?

["Mike Brooker" <aum108@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I received the following inquiry from a dxer in New Zealand.  I didn't do
any SW listening at all during Thursday's blackout.  Does anyone know if CHU
went off?  And if they did go off, how long did they stay off?  Or did they
switch to emergency power and stay on during the outage?

As I type, just after 1 PM eastern (1700 UTC), I can't hear CHU at all.  But
that's likely due to propagation, as I can't hear WWV on 5000 or 10000, and
reception is poor on 15000.
