While my wife was promoting a book in Rochester, NY I made a 2-night visit to Ditchley, VA for a short respite from our QRN-ridden suburban DC home.
With a 160’ DKAZ pointed at ~ 135 deg. true North and fairly low levels of noise I tried to make the best of pretty mediocre conditions. The one exception was South Africa on 729 and 828 kHz at sunset on April 22nd. Cape Pulpit on 729 was carrying English language religious programming and for the first time ever I pulled a web stream parallel trick on Magic 828 with a George Michaels song. Thank goodness I brought along a couple of HF+ radios to listen live while the Perseus was monopolized by Mestor. Otherwise the fare was a good collection of stations from Puerto Rico and Dominican Republic but a disappointing showing from Brazil. Still going through the wav files but here’s a web page that gives an accounting of what I’ve heard so far: http://realmonitor.com/am_logs_ditchley.php Bill Whitacre Alexandria, VA _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com
