Superb logs Paul. Autun is amazing for your NW location. This has been another excellent spell of autumnal tropo, with several personal firsts logged yesterday evening from Brittany. This evening I've also heard Bavaria, Switzerland, Austria and Spain. Quite a few new French sites for me here in wh...

Rowridge, Jersey, Devon, Cornwall in here tonight in Fermanagh

Azores in 87.7 / 88.5

87.7 / 94.6 from Fuerteventura

Madeira 88.4 / 94.1 / 95.5 in and out for the last twenty minutes. 88.4 now weak @ 1323 local

I think the big RNE transmitters are mixed polarisation. The rest are mostly horizontal with some vertical. 100.4 is still in here just after midnight but little else.

100.4 was still floating around when I came in about an hour ago - so around 1600 local. no sign of it at the moment @1711

Culleredo / Monte Xalo tx site is in from Galicia @ 1227 km / 762 miles. 94.5 / 95.8 / 100.4

2m beacon in Cape Verde being heard in Cork this evening @ 4169 km / 2590 miles.

Path also open to the Canary islands.

Barcelona area @ 0018 local

For some reason when I searched FMLIST the Verona station didn't come up the other day, odd, probably some error on my part.

I guess it was probably it although one oddity, it was as strong as the Bologna stations at the same time but no trace of RDS.

Anyway, I've already deleted the recording.

Anyone know what is on 92.15 possibly from the Bologna area? No RDS, recorded on June 14th.

Not a whisper of that Italian opening here. Apart from on 6 metres.

Fuerteventura and POR in @ 1830

87.7 / 94.6 / 95.3 from Fuerteventura

Hi Nick, yes I have the Ft8 plots turned on @ dxmaps - i'm just wondering where they get the raw info from as I'm often hearing stuff where I am which isn't showing up on dxmaps. PSK reporter is ok but Id love if there were a way for me to feed reports to Dx maps without entering the reports manually.

Hi Andy,

yeah but does PSKR feed to DX Maps?

I know when I have fed data to PSKR It hasn't gone to DX maps as well.

Anyone know how DX maps collects it's 6 metre spots? (Apart from direct input)

I'd love to feed FT8 info to them, right now I have Iceland, Western Sahara, The Azores and the Canaries all coming in but virtually nothing showing for Ireland on the maps.

Hi Tomas, RDSspy and the Elad work well together you will need Virtual Audio Cable or similar and set up a connection @ 192 khz you will also need to send WBFm Mux out to VAC in the settings of the elad software. This video shows how but there are more detailed explanations somewhere on this forum. ...

The only interesting ones I heard today (next to tons of Cadenas, Cuarentas, Europas, Kisses, Copes and Onda Ceros): You forgot RNE 1 ;) I caught a nice 1kw local opt out from RNE1 in Cantabria about a week ago giving local weather and news. I was as pleased with it as if it were something much mor...
