Hello Polaris and Cupid! Here is an other response also from the north. Strong signal but some deep fading now and then. I listened from around 2019 until around 2100 when I lost your signal. End of the test then perhaps? Was it also you testing on 6310,6 a little earlier, playing Bruce Springsteen,...

Great! Interesting this Foxtrot as I was listening to Spider that time. Pity that I didn´t switch on my old cassette recorder, it would have been interesting to listen to that minute again... Perhaps... I am still looking for my first american pirate. A better antenna would probably help a lot. As ...

WOW! :shock: Three American stations! :shock: Beating Spider on the same frequency! I was on the frequency exactly when you heard Foxtrot, trying to figure out what I was listening to. Some minutes later I heard the lady-ID from Spider. No sign of any other station up here. Congratulations! Also to ...

Yep! One of the better days here in the north too, great signal. But I have a problem. Around 1920 UTC I was listening and tried to get out information from the programme about weekendhappenings(?) in Catalonia, but this language... Can you tell l'Arboc to talk english... :lol: Do we hear Barretina ...

Hello again Dave! Some minutes ago I was lookikng at Dr Tims webpage and found your recording of this 6306-station. I think you have Viking Radio there. I hear three IDs on your clip; at 04, 35 and 59 seconds. I wasn´t listening at night, but the following morning I heard Viking on 6306 kHz... I´m...

I was digging and digging on both 6261 and 8005 kHx but ](*,) I was trying all the time 1900-2000... The lady propagation you mention didn´t appear up here either. Around 2000 Barretina came in well on 6311.1, Power FM not as strong as usual on 6882 and Spider weak on 6925. From my point of view th...

Okay Eldorado! Now we are talking signal here. 50 kW...heh... I just came home and missed your test today, pity. Tomorrow I come home around 1900, we´ll see then how it sounds. This 8005 kHz sounds interesting. Can you too try there or do you use crystals or something that keep you on 6261? 6261 is...

OK, merci Marcel! My NRD 525 only shows the signal in DB, so I guess it´s best that I stay with the SIO or SINPO system. Actually in my own logbook at home I only use the number of O (overall). For example 2 or 2-3. I have also noticed that my SINPO-giving is higher that other listeners when I am l...

Hello Marcel!

Nice logs, but I have a small problem. What does these 15%, 60% etc mean. Signalstrength ??? :?

Hello Dave!

This 6310 kHz at 0730 UTC. I was listening to Radio Lowland on the frequency that time. Lowland signed off soon after 0830.
