Re: [IRCA] Looking for Iceland cliff recomendations



May 2016?

I'm surprised you didn't notice RUV testing on 666 with 1kW from the outskirts of Reykjavik... pretty sure Nigel Pimblett from Alberta had them that month... and had both he and myself (in late August) mystified at the non-stop music.

I was in Iceland several years ago (dead of winter for the Northern Lights) and did some "DXing Lite".  If this will be your first trip, don't worry about optimizing a single location.  It will all be new and wonderfully different. Enjoy!

So this might be a longshot, but I'm going to Iceland for a week long
trip - driving around the entire country.  And I'm wondering if there
are any good DX cliffs with decent road access (as I won't have that
much time for setup).

I know there is only 3-4 hours of "night", but I'd love to log Greenland
for the first time or other MW stations.  I'm bringing a Tecsun 880.

Any suggestions?

Aaron
