Pirate Report from Dunlo, PA, USA, for 13 December 2009

Dave Valko · Post by **Dave Valko** » Wed Dec 16, 2009 01:29 am

13 DECEMBER 2009: I was surprised to be getting audio from Amica, LHH, and Pirate Music at home before I left for the remote site. So it looked promising. Indeed, conditions seemed fairly good when I started. After getting IDs on those 3, I got the Perseus recording and anxiously checked the band. No one seemed to be on. It was a wait of almost 2 hours (0900 UTC) before stations started showing up. By that time, the conditions had deteriorated. It was only fair at best the rest of the way.

RX: Microtelecom Perseus SDR with ARR preamp.
ANT: 315' Beverage (BOG) at 50Â°.
QTH: Pennsylvania State Game Lands #26
Duration: 0705-1100 UTC
Solar Indices: Solar Flux = 75 A Index = 2 K Index = 0 No storms.
WX: Clear and starry, then turning cloudy. Chilly, around 29Â° F. (-1Â° C.)

Hi Dave!

Thanks for your intresting logs. Its a good job and usefull.
Your not listening near the heating in a house but drive tro the night
to a hill, park your car by a frozen parking place, roll out the wire over the snow and stay for many hours in your car to catch us. Wonderfull and great! I have a lot of respect for your DXing style!
