Logs from central Europe (Czech Republic)
--------------------------------------------------------------

Hi,
yesterday I spent few hours at my favourite place by the sand mine, some 10
km from Pilsen, out of all noise.

Date: NOV 16, 2000
Time: 1300-1540 UTC
Geomagnetic field: quiet, K-index very low


1476 kHz - Azerbaijan Radio (tent), with koran at 1520 and Turkish-like
language. Fair-good.

1503 kHz - UNID - Iran? But the language was not Farsi (Persian), I think.
Radioplay-like program at 1525. Fair-good.

1521 kHz - China Radio Int. in Russian - local strength. Close down at 1457.

1521 kHz - CBS Taiwan - under CRI. Strong at 1410, then a chinese song heard
after RCI s/off at 1457 UTC.

1566 kHz - HLAZ Cheju, South Korea. No signal when they had japanese program
until 1345 UTC (opposite antenna beam). Heard before 1400 in Chinese, fair
to good at 1420.

1566 kHz - AIR at 1515, but QRM from other stations is bigger and bigger -
Sunset here is at 1517 UTC

Unfortunately no more time for a detailed look at other frequencies...

Receiver: GRUNDIG Satellit 700
Antenna: 50 metres of wire laid on sandy ground. This short wire was very
direction-sensitive. Moving antenna by 15-20 degrees already showed a
difference in signal strength.
This one was a very quiet antenna compared to another one on trees, 4 meters
above ground.

GOOD DX,
Karel Honzik
the Czech Republic
