Re: [IRCA] Tanzania 1377



Thank you Jim and Neil,

At least something to cheer about after an average season... How nice it would be if Africa could offer more mediumwave stations to look for like Latin America for instance, where tons of AM stations still operate successfully.

Great catch, Sylvain. Hopefully, the many more basically clear Euro
channels can yield more fine DX.

Rare even at Cappahayden.  It required either France to be off the air,
which did happen one year for a day or two.  And one year aurora wiped out
Europe.  The only stations weakly  audible were Spain and Algeria.   This
allowed unprecedented reception of Angola, Mocambique and Tanzania.  Nice
job!  Jim Renfrew

for
this one to show up at my place and it finally did :-) It came with fair
peaks at times but the window didn't last very long. I was hoping for a
second shot last night around that same time but unfortunately, it didn't
materialized as it did the other  night, except for a faint carrier
maybe.
Thanks Allen Willie for publishing your TA tips from Newfoundland on FB.
As
you can see, they can be quite helpful for other DXers :-) This adds BTW
a
new country to my total. Here's how it sounded:

higher noise level, thus less intelligible)
