London Calling.

Post by Andy Richards »

Quite good conditions today,certainly much better than the last few weeks!Less noise too.

Lots of really good music to be heard today alongside some pretty good signals.

I especially enjoyed the music from Orion,Scotland,Zodiac,VOTN,Playback and Saturnus today
and Borderhunter and Monte Carlo yesterday.

The German station on 6200 has been logged as "Radio White Man".I think it was "Radio Wise Man".
Anyway,we all know who it was!!

Best signal of the weekend goes to Boomerang as usual,but VOTN,Borderhunter,Zodiac,Scotland & Orion were not far behind.

Looking at my logs, I can fill in some of your unids:
Sat:
3910 - Skyline International Radio (I logged it at exactly the same time1)
6200: Radio Suzuki - a new Dutch station, off at 0945
6200: Radio The White Man (QSL can be seen on Iann's web page)
6215: Radio King SW (probably - IDs are always very difficult to hear)

Sun:
6205: Radio Suzuki, again (he is one of the stations that is using Iann's chatroom (see Iann's posting for address) to announce his broadcasts and get reception reports)

Hope that helps
