Hi Walt Yes, you are correct. I should have checked a more official source than this. http://radiomap.eu/uk/play/bbc_merseyside I wouldn't expect BBC Radio Cumbria to make any references to Liverpool in normal programming. I checked today at 0900 and I heard BBC Radio Newcastle - it's just

Good point, Nigel. I had forgotten about them. Are they parallel to the LW transmitters? Barcelona would be a major impediment to hearing them. Just checking a wav file from 01:00, and it's a mish mash of several stations, with Spain dominating. Checked a few recordings from 01:00 to our local

Thanks for the interesting report Walt, and am glad to see that conditions seem to be on the upswing just in time for your trip. Have you heard any sign of the new Iceland station on 666? I believe it's only 1 kw. I had good reception earlier this year, but then I was in Reykjavik at the t

A good start to our DXpedition to this farmhouse in south-eastern PEI. Joined by well-known DXers Bruce Conti, Neil Wolfish, Brent Taylor, and Nick Hall-Patch, I felt like a newbie with such a profusion of TA and African targets. The star antenna, IMHO, is the DKAZ erected by Nick aimed 60 degrees
