It was one of the most widely heard DX test in decades with receptions spanning the globe. It was also reported in virtually every part of North America. Thanks to KSEN, Paul Walker for arranging the test, and Joe Miller, KC80 for designing the QSL card and handling verifications. As we went to press, we received a late report and QSL report as well which is included below: ? I would like to report my reception of KSEN from November 8th on 1150 kHz. My best reception came at 0238-0239 EST when I heard Morse code and the sweeping tones. At no time did I hear any voice announcements. There were four other stations on 1150 kHz which were causing interference, which included WCUE, CKOC, WHBY, and WIMA. This is #1 from Montana from my home in Sterling Heights, Michigan. -James Paige, Sterling Heights, Michigan 73, Les Rayburn, N1LF 121 Mayfair Park Maylene, AL 35114 EM63nf NRC & IRCA Courtesy Program Committee Chairman Member WTFDA, MWC Perseus SDR, Elad FDM-S2 SDR, AirSpy + Discovery, SDRPlay RSP-2 Pro, Sony XDR-F1HD [XDR Guy Modified], Dennon TU-1500RD, Sangean HDT-1X, Ray Dees RDS Decoders, Korner 9.2 Antenna, FM-6 Antenna, Kitz Technologies KT-501 Pre-amps, Quantum Phaser, Wellbrook ALA1530 Loop, Wellbrook Flag, Clifton Labs Active Whip. ?Nothing but blues and Elvis, and somebody else?s favorite song?? ------------------------------ Message: 2 Date: Sun, 17 Jan 2021 11:40:24 +0100 From: "Wolfgang Bueschel" <dg1...@t-online.de> To: "hcdx" <hard-core-dx@hard-core-dx.com>, "wor" <w...@groups.io> Subject: [HCDX] Fw: Vanuatu Message-ID: <6223B9FBA025445CBF1443CA6803B477@HNPC1> Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed; charset="UTF-8"; reply-type=original SOLOMON ISLAND 5020 kHz On remote ZL1ROT Rotorua NZL KiwiNet SDR Rx noted SIB Honiara SLM at 10.30 UT, 05-12 UT S=9+10 or -65dBm, music program.

Paul Walker pointed out that I was confused about our DX Test sequence and needed to correct my report. Attached is a report on the November KSEN 1150 kHz DX Test from Montana. It was one of the most widely heard DX test in decades with receptions spanning the globe. It was also reported in virtually every part of North America. Thanks to Todd Clark, KSEN, Paul Walker for arranging the test, and Joe Miller, KC80 for designing the QSL card and handling verifications. As we went to press, we received a late report and QSL report as well which is included below: ? I would like to report my reception of KSEN from November 8th on 1150 kHz. My best reception came at 0238-0239 EST when I heard Morse code and the sweeping tones. At no time did I hear any voice announcements. There were four other stations on 1150 kHz which were causing interference, which included WCUE, CKOC, WHBY, and WIMA. This is #1 from Montana from my home in Sterling Heights, Michigan. -James Paige, Sterling Heights, Michigan 73, Les Rayburn, N1LF 121 Mayfair Park Maylene, AL 35114 EM63nf NRC & IRCA Courtesy Program Committee Chairman Member WTFDA, MWC Perseus SDR, Elad FDM-S2 SDR, AirSpy + Discovery, SDRPlay RSP-2 Pro, Sony XDR-F1HD [XDR Guy Modified], Dennon TU-1500RD, Sangean HDT-1X, Ray Dees RDS Decoders, Korner 9.2 Antenna, FM-6 Antenna, Kitz Technologies KT-501 Pre-amps, Quantum Phaser, Wellbrook ALA1530 Loop, Wellbrook Flag, Clifton Labs Active Whip. ?Nothing but blues and Elvis, and somebody else?s favorite song?? ------------------------------ Message: 11 Date: Mon, 18 Jan 2021 03:48:00 +0100 From: "Wolfgang Bueschel" <dg1...@t-online.de> To: "wor" <w...@groups.io>, "hcdx" <hard-core-dx@hard-core-dx.com> Subject: Re: [HCDX] Glenn Hauser logs January 16, 2021 Message-ID: <491A5EBB71944834A3190B098B6701D6@HNPC1> Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed; charset="iso-8859-1"; reply-type=original CUBA AT 02.30 UT on Jan 18 no faulty RHC Bauta site 6th tx 'off-frequency-minus one' transmission could be monitored. 6000 En, 9535.005, 9650.004, 9699.998 En, 11670, 11760, 11850, 13740, and 15230 kHz.
