Hey Dave,
That's a long, impressive list indeed!
Did you get any sleep tonight? It seems you had a busy night, no time to sleep...
You had a UNID at 0857 h on 6304.07. This was Shadowman, who came on air direct after i was s/off.
Thanks for reporting.

Greetings, Albert.

No sleep yet!! I stayed up to make sure I got the report out in time. Woke up at 0615 UTC (which is 2:15 AM here!!!), drove out to the remote site by 0640, rolled out the antenna wire through the dark woods and was listening by 0650. Maybe I'll take a nap this afternoon!! Losing a little sleep is worth it when so many stations are audible on the band!!!!

Tnx !

Hi Dave,

thanks for the 'sharp listening' and mentioning the carrier problem. A few weeks ago I removed some of the shielding/buffering, because I needed some extra space. It seems this was not the best thing to do, without further checking :?

I also noticed the unusual conditions overhere, with some S9+60 dB in the UK whereas local signals almost disappeared last evenening. :P

Boomi.
