You are right Sleeper I was jumping the gun as I was going out after I my last post and was in a rush.
Looking at the recording I have shows Europa FM fighting with Radio Canela so googling that comes up with this below. http://www.canelafm.net/ It does have 968111777 as one of their phone No's so another mystery solved. Andy 11:33 - PI Code: 5158 [Radio Canela] 11:34-44 - PI Code E2ED PS:EUROPAFM 11:59-12:16 PI Code: 5158 PS:8-111-777 12:22-23: PI Code: E200 12:40 PI Code: E2CA [brief] 12:48-12:51 PI Code: 8201 PS:ANTENNA1 {POR} 13:33 E2CA - brief burst all from the RDSSpy log - as I was at work all day. I just fascinated by the whole phenomenen of SpE - as it some cases it seems to me reception is concentrated from one small area but received over a wide distance at the other end Rgds David Sittingbourne |

This is my first SpE season and to be honest it's been disappointing. I didn't receive any radio today but got a few seconds of Ukrainian tv just using a desktop discone on R1. I definatley prefer tropos both for fm and tv Dx .

Nothing heard via Es here today so another frustrating afternoon watching intense Es over Europe just out of reach.
On a different subject, I'm surprised I can still hear London pirate Genesis Radio frequently fading up now conditions are flat. It even peaks noise-free sometimes. |

Andy - out of interest when exactly did you get Radio Canela/EuropaFM fighting it out on the same frequency? There's a fair distance between the two of us and I wonder what time your reception was compared to mine? Which as you need to know it was - on June 28th:

I'm monitoring band 1 at the momment but there's nothing. The last week of june and the first week of july are meant to be the strongest for SpE. I don't know why tropospheric openings are so few in comparison to the 80s and 90s. I guess part of the ingredient is sustained high pressure which we don't get much of anymore. Infact it seems most tropos are scatter or enhancement rather than proper ducting which gives signals real strength and distance. Anyway that's my moan over.

Might have missed some of this sleeper. I turned the tuner on at 6 pm and found a few Italians but it didn't last long, maybe 10 minutes.

I'm getting faint signals in the lower part of the band. Are any of you getting Rds levels ?

I'm lucky as I can pick up Q music and 538 under flat conditions plus a few other weaker Dutch stations. Also the band is free from pirates . Other than that no more Dx for me either now.

Yeah I'm starting to enjoy 538 even though I've never been a big dance music fan.

A HUGE Es cloud over Eastern Europe at the moment. Unfortunately it's too far east for the UK to benefit.
I hope something happens later. It's getting frustrating watching the Es over Europe just out of reach. |
