[HCDX] 171 kHz Morocco STRONG tonight

[F W Mooney <fmooney@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hets strong on 153 and 162, but Morocco is BOOMING in this evening on 171 kHz, with music typical of the Magreb.  Way above the RF noise of the computer, TV, and VCR!

6:30 PM EST
SINPO 35444 (S7 on the ICOM; adjacent noise floor is S4)
QTH Tampa FL
ICOM R-70
Tuned Rotatable Ferrite Rod Antenna

Working the prototype for the backyard EWE antenna tonight.  We'll see if it outperforms the hi-Q ferrite rod setup!
