Friends,
Guy's reception of Farda from Grayland on a barefoot SRF-39FP
absolutely obliterates the old world record for distance in the
Barefoot Class. BRAVO, Guy!!!! I've already entered it in the
official records.
Guy Atkin's sez:
The highlight of my 2-night DXpedition over the weekend in Grayland,
Washington was certainly the logging of Radio Farda, 1575 kHz in the
UAE. This was during grayline conditions last night (Nov. 2 UTC
date), less than an hour past local sunset and just before
Al-Dhabbaya, UAE sunrise. It's a distance of 7,538 mi. / 12,131 km.,
per the Google Earth "Distance Tool" from the R. Farda antenna array
to Grayland Beach State Park!
