London Calling.

[Andy Richards]

I didn't have too much time to listen this weekend,as my logs reveal.

Last week the 6.9Mhz area was very busy.I have no idea if it was busy or not this weekend as the noise at my QTH on
this part of the band was terrible!I couldn't even hear LHH on 6970,let alone Irish Music Radio on 6930.
I did hear Mustang closing down,for quite a long time,on Saturday afternoon on 6925.
And I did hear a strange UNID on 6920 on Sunday.The only one breaking through the noise.Sounded like maybe UK or Irish.
Anyone with any ideas?
Good signals from "The Regulars",Skyline and Orion.
Merlin and Bogusman may not be"Regular" stations but they pop up often at different times and on different frequencies
and both had good signals too.
Scotland did a short test and had very rapid and deep fading with me.His mod level seemed to be very low too.
Down on 3930 on Saturday,Willskracht is a new one for me.
It used to be that SW Pirates used 48m during the day and 76m at night.It is really spreading out now and The Pirates
are starting to experiment with frequencies all over the place.
