Hi,

- still no real name for the 'tests' on 6160 (I nickname that as TEST 6160)
- hard to identify the low power R. NOVA
- always dubious if various replays from (various) Caroline are via R. 319
- a week with Italian stations, what's the logic with their calendar ?

Tips in time order, except when linked with a "|" in the spacing line.

Letter after kHz : a=approx. (or bit of wandering), u=USB, L=LSB, v=bit of drift, V=real drift

Please note that c'/d is a period from a few seconds to well more than an hour before the real switch off !
"Strength" notes (from e.weak to V.strong) are rather S/N notes by ear, not S-meter levels. Most of the noise is local, but seldom identified as such.
