First off what an amazing experience DXing with an FSL for the first time! The dial was alive with signals this morning. I started listening at 1326.
594 JOAK w/ male & female in JJ; I estimate an S6 signal
657 Pyongyang booming in with female singing; approx. S7
693 JOAB weaker with male speaking
702 China? with weak audio and flutter fading
792 with weak audio
828 JOBB with time pips, female speaking in JJ, rapid fading earlier, more stable signal a bit later
972 HLCA with female singing, rapid fading early, more stable signal later
1017 CRI (I think) male speaking, quick fades
1053 Pyongyang? with female speaking, weaker signal
1287 JOHR? with two men speaking, about an S6 level
1296 CRI? with weaker audio
1323 CRI? Music with quick fading
1386 with weaker audio & long, deep fades
1422 with weak audio
1566 HLAZ with hymn at armchair level, sounded like an antenna pattern switch at about 1515, signal dropped noticeably
1593 CNR1 with male speaking, short, deep fades
What a terrific TP morning for this "dry-lander"!! Many thanks to Gary DeBock and his amazing baby FSL. And this is the small one!!! Wow! Thank you Gary! I'm amazed at what this little FSL can do in conjunction with an ultralight!
