** Personal Skegness 'First'

Beaming the antenna slightly further to the south overnight gave more in the way of Spanish and French DX. I was very surprised to see the PI code of AFN pop u on 104.2 though. Here is a video of this: http://youtu.be/O0KeXbBIYFE (104.2 AFN The Eagle, Casteau (SHAPE) 4kW 386 km 2014-11-21 0016)

Good DX!
