Bogdan Alexandru Chiochiu
QTH: Montreal (Pierrefonds-Est), Quebec,
Canada
Equipment: Sangean 606 with long-wire outdoor and
using it's own telescopic whip for hearing Ottawan FM
Yesturday while doing a homework I did listen to SW
and some MW stuff using the Sangean 606 in my room with the long-wire antenna
outdoor. The two biggest highlights were hearing a GYer on 1450 with a relativly
steady signal and NOS mx as well as getting Radio Marti on 6030 with not even
the faintest trace of the cuban bubble jammer co-channel tx. Some smaller
highlights were hearing tentative Africans with too weak to be IDable signals on
5025, 5030 and 5047 kHz before sunset !
During the past few days, on 1 or 2 occasions I did
note a het on 17835 with bits of soft Spanish gospel mx once for a second or so,
but not enough to confirm it was Radio Imperial.
That's it for now !
73 and good DX,
Bogdan |
