Yes i think its Merlin, but right now to much interference near 6270. They have a strong carrier, about s9 but sometimes no modulation?
Anyway it's bedtime here, i must go up at 0540 loc time so only a few hours sleep.
Enjoy the DX Alex, greetings from this side.

Yes, Peter, same here. Solid carrier S-7+ 2345 UTC, but no modulation that I can make out. Maybe transmitter needs a little adjusting? Have a good night!

VOTN says now on 6275 with 800-watts. Sun has come back out brightly here after a little bit of rain earlier, so it looks like 48-meterband won't be fading in until a little bit later now.
Will have to try after 2230 UTC or so (1830 local time).

Thanks, Peter--I did hear it. Very nice! Went off about 2246.
Nice stable carrier on 6280.1, but some kind of noise from utility station, or maybe tV interference, is pretty much blocking Merlin. 8400 can finally hear "Achtung," running past 2305. Have a good night!
