London Calling.

Post by Andy Richards »

Great weather and great listening this weekend.

I'm sure the public holiday in most of Europe tomorrow helped too..........we in the UK are at work tomorrow :cry:

The Level 48 idea seemed to work quite well.Certainly kept the bands busy!!

Laser are much better with me on 4015.

I'm curious about the low power stations.Did I really hear Festivum say they were running 2 watts?
What about the well named Low Power Radio?How low?
And Radio Universe said he was on low power too...........how low?

Strongest signals were Level 48(Space),Scotland,Level 48(German 6290),LHH,Alice and Brandaris.

Conditions really did seem very good this weekend,I hope this is the beginning of better days.

Musicmaker/Saturnus - Apologies if I got the FX wrong in my post.
Not sure how I got that wrong..................:cry:

Universe - Yes,low power indeed these days,but 20 watts or more seems to be OK again now!!I wouldn't have guessed from your signal that it was only 25 watts................it seemed better than that.So I think conditions must be getting better for low power stations.............all you need is a clear frequency!!!

So avoid 6300 to 6315Khz!!!! [-X

I have heard that your unidentified on 3940khz last sunday was Laser Hot Hits itself and not another playing old Laser tapes. The news was posted via my dx club this morning. Its the new Laser frequency so im told.
