(Ivo Ivanov-BUL, hcdx via wwdxc BC-DX TopNews Dec 9 / 12)
I guess Jeff White rent an older transmitter unit
on older Issoudun C / D / E curtain array location,
n o t via 16 x Ampegon / Thomcast Alliss revolving power units ?
Frequency varied up to 30 - 40 Hertz up and down,
centered mostly on
17545.069 kHz at 15.34 UT and through.
TX OFF switch at 15.58:05 UTC.
I would rather think,
that Jeff rent an oldie USSR transmitter unit
at Sofia Kostinbrod Bulgaria instead?
Because of frequency wandering ...
