Plenty of Irish stations here.
All the usual high powered stations from Mount Leinster, Kippure and Mullaghanish etc.
A new one for me 'Spin FM' from Co Tipperary 1kW on 94.7 is coming in very strong with RDS on the whip aerial.

Its an omni aerial, since I live in a communal building & cannot have one of my choice. At least it is better than nothing & there has been improvement since I bought an extra Sony ST-SB 920 for the living room. Worked out well for the E skip season so no complaints from me.

I also re-connected the DAB radio in the living room since there is a seperate aerial for this. There was a moment when some Devon stations were picked up, although not audible. Now I can hear them with no break ups. Going to keep checking for any new stations by doing regualr scans since this looks promising too.

Yes there's a good lift to the SW tonight, which is what'll be bringing in the Devon mux on DAB.

Nothing long-haul like last night on FM here yet.

BBC Radio Devon is coming in here on 103.4 now, even though I'm beaming east. That signifies a very good lift to the W/SW.

EDIT: Add to that BBC Radio Cornwall on 103.9.

France Musique 88.7 is just hovering in the noise but an hour ago I UCB Ireland 87.6 was booming in despite it being flea powered the rest of the Irish signals are just above normal.

Wrotham has come up in the past 10 mins so I hope things improve.

A very weak Classic 21 on 87.6 so maybe something's trying to happen.

Top radio on 91.3 is coming through noise free on vertical and radio 3 kent on horizontal. Other than that not much has hit the east all week. Tommorow looks promising . Let's hope for some proper ducting during the day rather than just night time enhancements .

Langenberg 95.1/99.2 up to fair mono levels and relatively stable. Perhaps the German tropo is re-starting.

Radio 538 seems to be the only Dutch station I can receive which is strange? I just got a faint Studio Brussel on 100.9 playing some nice music but Classic took over, I think that one is from London?

Radio Courtoisie from Cherbourg. It is received in my location with good reception this evening. They play cultural programmes & classical music, so it would match with what you are saying.

A good enhancement towards London at the moment with several pirates audible.

Ireland is enhanced here with the usuals Clemont Carn, Kippure, Mount Leinster, Truskmore, and Mullaghanish (rare for me) on 90.0 & 94.4. Newstalk 107.2, 107.4, (107.8 use to be a regular here but Stray has took over that now).

Holland and Belgium (both VRT & RTBF), Lille enhanced here, also Capital 95.8 and Magic 105.4, a pirate on 87.5 amongst a few other stations...

Need to sort the rotator out as I'm stuck beaming SE at the moment...
