Hi All,

Last week on Oct 31 / Nov 1 around 00:00 UTC, Halloween night has much more to offer than candiesas propagation was at its best so far this seasonhere. Iran for instance, was all over the place with 17 stations logged from the top to the bottom of the band. Here's an interesting sample where two strong stations were battling for the 1st place on 1575 featuring UAE and IRN: http://www.quebecdx.com/uae_iran_1575.mp3

I also had the nice surprise to relog after a two years absence, China's CRI from Ürümqi on 1521 with Russian programming. The ID"Radio Kitaya" was given at 00:00. Here's a sample where signal was at his bestat 00:03 UT: http://www.quebecdx.com/mp3/china_1521a.mp3
There was no trace however of the other Chinese on 1098 that I've heard the last two years.

Bellow are my logs from that memorable night:
