january 3rd? is the date correct?

Thanks, despite the instructions saying go as high as you can up the band for best swr on such a short aerial the unit is much happier lower down. Plus as you say I hadn't sufficiently considered the coverage of most radios I've settled on 1440 until the planned Danish station appears. Then I'll hop...

I set up in the greenhouse with tuneable loop and sangaen ATS 505 (tecsun was still charging) Last night and heard 1521 CRI 1755-ish utc with the usual cc Mx prior to toth. TWN 1098 1833ut occasional peaks over pres. Slovakia minority SVC I didn't expect the Coventry CR on 1521 to be as much of a pr...

i'll try the garden, good idea

agreed, i wonder how much of the music the station themselves actually produces since i can't imagine all these Iranian versions of top 40 songs were produced in the country Farda & Sawa have a really distinctive sound, I identified sawa just from some weak music on one of Walt Salimanovs dx recordi...

so weak infact that at first i actually wondered if it was Donnington

..in case anyone wanted to catch it

tx is exhibiting a very slow drift curve

i believe some of the other other race tracks have already finished their broadcast year so it should be easy to confirm that you're receiving Oulton

IMG_20180915_101838.jpg Yup Miles was an influence on dub, check out his track recollections. Anyway during the 70s his US label didn't understand his music but the Japanese totally g...

yes cool, if you can make it afternoon thats great

I'm taking Dad out to the Cafe at Jodrell bank at lunch time , he's not eating and his appearance last night really shocked me
am hoping a change in surroundings might distract him and break the routine

If this is what you get during a full e opening, Imagine what you would get if you were on the extreme fringe of an opening, like the conditions I used to get mega weak brf pings of Israel, turkey etc Afghanistan? Xinjiang? Pakistan? Siberia? Kazakhstan? I emailed you last week, I guess your email h...
