Logs, 26 dec. to 1st of jan.

[Ray Lalleu]

• My own holiday logs, carefully checked against logs from all over Europe (and even some from N.America). I removed several errors, but did not replace my "UNID" [suggested IDs between square brackets]. Tough work when some stations are using different IDs along a single transmission! Still not a single idea for several UNIDs (some also heard by Rick in Finland). (Look my previous post for morning of 26 of Dec.)

A great log Ray!

I had some days off after Christmas and spent a little time in fromt of my old NRD.
A few comments to the log:

28.12:
6325 FSM "Flying Spaghetti Monster" with a good signal. Listened to them 1916-2009. C/d 2009 as you suspected.

29.12
6315,5 Unpredictable Radio gave good IDs at least 1610 and 1615. Much echo on the talking, so a little hard to copy sometimes.
6326,3 Radio Rockefeller signed off 1643. 10 watts but sounded like 500!
6385,3 Grutte Pier it was. ID 1703.

30.12
Interesting QSO on 6325:

1402-1409 Radio Powerliner reports to Pluto and Centurion.
1409-1412 unid with reports.
1412-1417 unid with reports.
1420-1431 Centurion Radio reports to Pluto. Neede-address.
1433-1440 Radio Rob reports, e-mailaddress.
1443-1451 unid (Rob?) Centurion and Rob mentioned.
1451-1452 Radio Ufo report to Rob. 2 watts from Northern Netherlands.
1452-1455 Centurion Radio reports to Rob and Ufo.
1455-1456 Radio Ufo reports to Centurion and Rob.
1457-1502 Radio Scotland reports to Rob, Ufo and Centurion.
1503-1510 Wizard Radio mentioning Scotland, music.
1510-1512 Centurion Radio report to Wizard, Neede-address.
1513-1520 Wizard Radio greetings to Centurion.
1522-1525 Centurion Radio giving address to Wizard.

After 1525 I joined the Bad Boys on 6320, don´t know if the QSO still continued after this...
