Observations

  • Much of the activity centred on a qso around 1645 kHz with lots of stations joining in. Orban was very strong and powerful as usual and was playing recordings of the stations in the qso. Also blasting in was Schaduwjager. You can listen to a recording here
  • You can listen to the excellent reception of Meteoor by clicking here and you can hear a superb signal produced by Electron by clicking here
  • The big stations were coming in well, but lower-powered ones like Zwarte Schaduw and Uniek were also doing well
  • Centraal was busy with a programme that was also going out on 6325 kHz and was received very well here
