Greetings to all,

Good DX is still available in the mountains of NH.
Surprised to hear a couple of PNGs and my first log of
Radio Pilipinas in quite some time.

PS: Has anyone logged Radio Damascus, Syria recently? 
Both 12085 and 13610 at 2100 are swamped by adjacent
channel QRM at my location. Are they still on SW?
