 ** Personal Skegness 'First'
A very interesting lift to begin the day with three directions
    coming in at the same time, producing simultaneous reception of
    Galicia, Ibiza, Catalunya, Languedoc-Roussillon and Sicily! Did I
    mention Algeria and tunisia too? The Balkans tried to come in
    shortly after this but signals were very weak, short-lived and
    nothing was identified from there. 
During the evening I was pleasantly surprised to find tropospheric
    conditions to northern Spain and south-western France, throwing up a
    few personal firsts. Then the Es returned, partly blocking out the
    tropo. 
Apart from getting the Toulouse transmitter with full RDS - two bars
    on the XDR, another highlight for me was the reception of Swindon
    FC's 25 watt outlet on 105.5! I have written to the station to let
    them know I was listening to them on the Lincolnshire coast.
