Interesting, interesting!
What part of the world will the signals of Phoenix start from?
Just curious...
I will try to catch this rare bird up here in the north. Let us hope the radioweather will be good.
Good luck

Hello Phoenix,
are you on air right now, saturday, 13H56 UTC playing David Bowie "Heroes" ?
I hear a station on 6295, but there is a lot of utilities around, so it's difficult to have the ID.
Greetings.

Hello Phoenix and Iann!
Was listening to the test for over two hours, 11.35 - 13.40. I guess Phoenix was still on the air 13.56.
Stable on 6294,76 kHz all the time...

Very good signal for a provisional antenna ! Don't change anything to it !
BTW could you post the full design ? (antenna, line and tuning box). Hope this good result is not due to a brand new coax still dry inside !
Also clean carrier, so I could tune in SSB to escape utility QRM.
Only the Phoenix name is not banging very well for IDs (so there was a false ID somewhere on the blogs).
