Oops, spoke too soon. Audio at reasonable levels now at 14:25. Could then be

'This weekend, John Bryant, Guy Atkins, and myself once again convened in

This morning, in Victoria, BC, I again set the 7030+ timer on for 0830 to
1030, with the Recall-Pro. Nothing at all at 0830, but within a few
minutes started hearing audio. Peak again on the west coast is between
0855 and 0920. No time pips or IS at the TOH, but I thought I might have
heard

Tentative reception of this new PNG Christian outlet first noted with

PARAGUAY 9737.0, 0338-, Radio Nacional Apr 23 Still on at this late
hour. Carrier is strong, but very undermodulated, with EZL Spanish vocals
and talk. I'm using either USB, or LSB with Notch to follow this

A rather lackluster morning. Not much time these days for dxing, but here
are three loggings from this morning:
CANADA 6030, 1432-, CFCP Apr 17 Good reception with the Lutheran
Hour. Well over 2 cochannels Chinese ( Udorn, Thailand with IBB according
to HFCC A05 and presumed Chinese jammer),
A very, very good morning, especially on Trans Pacific MW, but also on
SW. Here's a sampling of what I have been hearing, using primarily my new
Icom 756Pro2, but also a Collins R-390A with SE-3 (a superb combination,
