On Saturday, we had a major solar flare which knocked out reception on the daylight side of earth. Signals finally faded in around sunset, but another quiet night from Europe. Sunday morning had...

The loudest station was Radio Cue from Thessaloniki, while the other station heard was Radio Syl...

Re: Logs from Newfoundland, Dec.30-Jan. 3

Hi Glowbug:

Unfortunately, I have no idea where the CZ beacon is. It was from Channel Z Radio, but that is all I know.

Re: December logs from Newfoundland

Thanks for the comments guys.

Federer: I use a Japan Radio Co NRD-525 receiver. My antenna is a 75 m long wire located in a wooded area behind my house, connected to my radio by 30 m of coax that has the sheild grounded at each end.
