Best conditions for a long time.

Nice to see that all the Pirates made the most of the opportunity!!

Great to hear my breakfast DJ on Orion Radio again,shame he's not on
next week............terrible version of "Tell Laura I love her".....please John,don't ever play that again!!!!!!!!!!!
Made up for it with Glen Miller's "In the Mood",Great old classic.My Dad loved it too!

Good to hear VOTN on after Orion had gone off.Orion usually closes early,
this frequency could be used more after he closes.

Again a superb signal from Radio Borderhunter on 76m,real "armchair
quality".Not too bad on 48m either..........still strong when he was saying
conditions had gone "Long skip".(They had,but he was still strong!)

Radio Calypso rock solid as usual.

I think today was my first catch of Free Radio Victoria............Good voice!!

Radio Boomerang had perhaps the best modulation today,closely followed
by Radio Shadowman & Radio Borderhunter.

I thought I heard Radio Zodiac saying someone had a poor report on his mod.
Sounded absolutely fine to me.Great music again.

I also enjoyed the music from Delta Radio.

Good to hear Radio Ramona again.....long time no hear.
