Re: [IRCA] 585-2WEB Confirms S9 Reception

Great going Gary. 2WEB used to be common, but that was years ago. They had a nice card in the 80s.  I've got the Eastern Beverage and the NW EWE now working after the storms last Summer. This Fall I am getting the SW EWE back up. The noise level of late has dropped off, so maybe I can finally get back to Pacific DXing. I am keeping my fingers crossed.

Subject: [IRCA] 585-2WEB Confirms S9 Reception

David Sharp, programming director of 585-2WEB in Bourke, Australia ("Outback Radio") has confirmed the blowtorch reception of the station yesterday morning at the Rockwork 4 cliff, calling it "the strongest level I've ever heard for TP reception."

David is an ex-U.S. DXer and member of our Ultralight Radio Yahoo group. My first contact with him was in 2010, when I was complaining on the Ultralight list about "the dumb Australian station on 585 that plays rock music but never ID's." He listened to a song in my MP3 and sent me a QSL out of the blue, after checking the station's music log. I promptly "took back" what I had said about the station :-)

<<< I checked our music log. Definitely 2WEB at the strongest level I've ever heard for TP reception.

Gary- you already have two QSL letters and this is your fourth reception of the station (also a record for a single DXer), let me know if you want another QSL.

2WEB gets almost no reports these days!

73s
