Hello WNKR, :veryhi

I dit receive your broadcast on 1476khz last night at about 2.00h UTC.
Maximum signal strenght S9+15dB sinpo 44433
When I turned my receiver this morning at 9.00h on I still coult hear your broadcast but weaker and some times it faded out complete.
At 10.00h i coult hear only some audio fragments sometimes just popping above the noise.

Receiver FRG8800 and with a inverted L antenna, 7 meters vertical and with a small angle, aprox 30 meters wire up to 15 meter above the ground.

Wow Jan thats great, looks like you caught our signal nicely.
That TX is only 20 watts max and would have been less by that time as it runs of a car battery, Ant is a "T" with 70 foot vertical section.

Thanks,
Dave.

Bad frequency, at least overhere.

Last night, huge signal S9+40dB from a French speaking station.

This morning, Dutch pirates with equal signal strengths.

Would have been nice to catch some signal, unfortionally not this time. Maybe next time we have more luck.
