A good weekend.

I didn't have a chance to listen till Saturday evening.
The 76m band was busy.Good,I like Pirates at night.
Radio Borderhunter was rock solid,but he always seems to fade right out with me,and he did,at 2135.
A few stations were fading right out with me this weekend,even Spaceman.
Nice to hear Radio Spaceman back.We have all missed him!Not strong at first though,but he got stronger and stronger with me.(Despite a 20 minute fade out).Spaceman was getting reports from the States and
Canada so I am sure that those fade outs that he and Borderhunter were
getting were sending signals right out.
Sunday Morning I gradually woke up with my strong coffee and cigarettes to the sounds of Orion Radio and Playback Radio.Great mix of relaxed sounds from Orion and some really nice Jazz from Playback.
Radio Borderhunter was on the air again today.I knew it was him when I heard the quality of the music modulation.Superb!!But he faded out with me again at about 1030!

I did try for the Polish Pirate on 76m,heard something but can't be sure it was him.
Also tried for TEXASSERBIA on MW but heard nothing.

Strongest signals with me this weekend were from Boomerang,Borderhunter & Spaceman.
