With the DX season starting up, I've noticed a few odd things on the bands
over the last two months.
1. On 630- WBMQ- Savannah GA has been dominating here, instead of the usual
WMAL-Washington. I think WMAL has had some transmitter issues and may not
be on full power, but I have been impressed with WBMQ's signal- quite strong
recently.
2. On 910- what a jumbled mess. It sounds like a graveyard channel here in
central Delaware. WSBA-York PA usually dominates but not so far this
season.
3. Is it just me or does the X-band seem a bit dead so far?
4. With RVC-530 off, CIAO Brampton ON has been a regular over the last
week. At least I think that's CIAO, the audio matches their webstream,
although I have yet to hear a good ID. I've been hearing some announcer
playing easy-listening type music and he has a weird accent, like a cross
between a Jamaican accent and an Irish one.
5. Still no Saudi audio on 1521 but the het is there every night.

5. The Cuban wobbler was quite the pest a few nights ago on 930. Will he be
a regular this season?
6. Got my first TA of the season a few nights ago- Croatia on 1134 but I
couldn't pull them in on my SRF-59.
