London Calling.

[Andy Richards]

Conditions were not very good today really.Quite noisy here too,especially on the 52m band
and at times on 48m.But the 76m band was not too noisy.

Many stations still suffering from deep fades and even complete fade outs.

Good to hear Laser Hot Hits back and with a good signal too.

After all the talk on this forum about the lack of UK Pirates,they did OK today.
LHH(OK,based in Eire but studios in the UK),Radio Merlin Int,The Bogusman(Though I couldn't hear him) and Radio Geronimo SW,with quite a good signal,were all on.

Orion Radio was not as good a signal with me as normal,not as strong as usual and suffering from a noisy 52m band.I couldn't hear the SW Cowboys at all when Orion closed and could only hear them
faintly later.

I was expecting some nice long broadcasts on 76m on Saturday night,but both Boomerang(Huge signal) & VOTN(Very strong) did not stay on air long and nobody else came on after them.

I liked the Hammond organ music on 6205 both yesterday and today.
Was this Radio Suzuki?

Both Mystery Radio & Playback Radio Int were putting out quite good signals and it was nice to hear them get together on both frequencies for a joint programme.

Radio Borderhunter was very strong when I first heard him but he soon faded out to a much weaker signal,maybe someone else was getting the benefit!

Radio Zodiac Int was very strong with me,great music as usual and he kept a pretty solid signal only having one brief fade out for 3 minutes with me.
