My wife, my daughter and I were visiting my parents this weekend, and although we were primarily there to see family, I found time for some listening ...
The signals were slightly weaker and the noise level significantly higher than on Lista (where Arvid and I had a ‘pirate DX-pedition’ in September) – but I managed to hear a lot of interesting stations anyway!
(Unfortunately, Radio Atlantis was very weak, and there was no sign of Radio 0511 and WMBR.)All times UTC (to avoid confusion because of the change to winter time ...). S as in SINPO.
Fri Oct 29

0710 1512 Zanussie with his regular weekend broadcast. S3-4
0710 1630 Radio Utopia with a music show. Good to hear Wim again. Haven’t heard him since 2002! Unfortunately Bartje came on air on top of Utopia at one point, making it impossible to listen. (I guess it wasn’t a problem in the Netherlands, as Bartje and Utopia have different coverage areas at daytime. C/d at 0910. S3

1315 6670L Dave (GB), Mike (NL) and Bénoît (F) QSOing. Good to see some activity on 6670. It’s been very quiet there for some years now (I wonder what happened to the ‘Echo Charlie’ band!).
