[HCDX] Radio Minivan 13855 kHz

["Matti Ponkamo" <mattipo@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi DX;rs !

R.Minivan heard quite well here in South-West of  Finland
(Maidenhead loacator KP10AK), date Aug 25 2004 at 1616-1658.
I was not able to catch the beginning of the broadcast, due to
family reasons (argue about mopeds with a teenager).

Signal was at its best at 9 (+deciBels!), even listening with
the tiny Kenwood TH-F7E with its 16 cm antenna.
Almost no QRN or QRM, only slight splatter from adjacent
channels, some occasional fading.
But then again, how was the situation around the target area?
