I would really like some help with the UNID's this week.I am especially curious about the massive signal on MW 1656.
Also the station on 6210 with the good taste to play Ramstein!!
And also the very weak Dutch station on 6400 playing Men at Work,who I suspect might be part of Robbo's Bet!

Any help with UNID's please post here or e-mail me at;

Hi Andy,

Conditions this weekend were not to bad here!
In a range of let's say 200km, they were even very good.
I did a qso with Westcoast, Brigitte, Digital, Skyline-NL, Saturnus.
First 2 stations had a massive signal here.

Skyline-UK is also received here, not very strong, but audible. (R.U.I. was much stronger)
The German Skyline was on air too..so, there are 3 Skyline's now, rather confusing for the dx-ers!

On Sunday, i did a test of new x-tals. ( 6380 khz and 6210.)
According the replay, 6210 had less qrm, and your UNID on 6210 with Rammstein: that was R.S.I. to!

Thanks for the report, Albert.

Hello Andy,

First thanks for the reception. Small correction:
6300 - 1219-1222 - DJ Dipole/Orion Radio - 22222 - German.
This wasn't DJ Dipol, but On Air AM ( onairam@gmx.de ) His first transmission. The unid's can't help you, but indeen there where stations active on 6400 testing as part of Robbo's Bet. Also Westcoast was there, but on another time.

Hello Scotland,thanks for mentioning me,it was a little hectic sunday so many stations and good signals but when i had switched off, the signals were gone or deep fading,what a pity!Here in Amersfoort your signal was the strongest at that time.

[Andy Richards]

Thanks to you all for your replies.

Albert,

As you can see from my log i caught you earlier on 6210 and you were much stronger than later.But still,you had the good taste to play some Rammstein!!


John,

Thanks."On Air AM",made a note of that.But I was sure "Orion Radio" was mentioned too.Was this a joint broadcast or did you come on air after him?

Saturnus,

Sorry,but I didn't hear you this weekend,sounds like a lot of the noise I'm getting must be local.Last caught you on;

24/07/05 - 0823-0826UTC - 6270 - 33533 - Not a bad signal!
