What a difference being 1000km closer to Japan and using Beverages makes. I
only had my TA antennas laid out in WI but awoke early and checked for TP's
and the only thing was a very weak het from 747.
Low band TA"s were quite good last night, with the most interesting being
Ireland 549 with C&W and only, per they're veri -email 25 kW.
re: 1008..Canary Islands is also possible. Unfortunately I didn't note any
SER Spanairds in at that time (action was low band) so I cannot say whether
that net had a sports event.
Mid and high band only had the real regulars.
Long wave was decent here, but interesting that 189 Iceland was basically
non existant early on, but was quite nice to listen to the rock mx from them
about 0515.
Also on LW, I believe 177 Germany runs DRM til 0400 as is a mess of funny
noise, and then they have analog and can be heard after 0400.
I'd love to hear more about your Beverages...direction, length , etc height
above ground, terminated ?
Sounds like you have a superb set up and a nice rural QTH.. 73 KAZ

Saturday night/Sunday AM.
1008 21:55 Spanish, sounded like play by play. assume Spain. New
Sunday AM
693 13:48 Japan // 774 English & JJ so assume language lessons.
I say strange conditions in that both these are new stations but
almost nothing else on the MW band. in terms of TA/TPs. Next to
nothing else even in the way of hets.
No DUs.
Morocco booming in on 171 all evening.
