Re: [IRCA] DU station 999 khz

Nick -


I've heard Broken Hill from Grayland or Oregon yearly for the last 4 or 5 years. They stick out well with their pips and ABC fanfare on the half hour.

2NB  isn't heard on the coast particularly, Nigel.   Even the
Grayland Master Log has one mention from 1998, and that was tentative.

However, Bruce Portzer heard it at Grayland last October with ABC
fanfare on the half hour.   Pretty nice catch.   (I'd better look a
bit more carefully at the Utah files from a couple of days later...)

best wishes,

Nick
