My fault - I was testing out the Elad FDM-S2 - SDR...
and I knew that doing anything different in my SHACK would cause
shock-waves, HUGE SHOCK-WAVES in the world of radio listening....
The moment I awoke -- around 1200 UTC, my phone blinked that there was
a geo-physical issue... apparently things just before this were JUST FINE.
Anyway - the sum total of my report is:
Epic signals from ABC on 612 and Radio New Zealand on 756 around 1335 UTC.
Out of frustration with the conditions and the amount of TVI on the band,
I have "flipped" my N/NE Flag for a S/SW bearing to go chasing the DU's,
ZEDS and Aussies...
because there are WAY more of them than there are TA's.
Of course, now that I have done this, the band will turn around and yield
night after night of TA's!
Darn you Murphy!
