Tropo / Temperature Inversion
While at the new Gibraltar Point Visitor Centre this afternoon, I took a few photos out over The Wash from the viewing platform. The platform is no more than about 20 feet above the ground.
When I returned home, I used a distance-to-horizon calculator and I discovered that the visible horizon at only 20 feet above the ground is only 5.5 miles, yet I could clearly see the other side of The Wash some
15 miles away, plus a few vessels about ten miles down the coast, seemingly floating in the air. I didn't think anything of it until I entered some data into http://www.ringbell.co.uk/info/hdist.htm. So what I was able to see was only possible because of the temperature inversion. I guess this all ties in with the level of tropospheric ducting is in the atmosphere at the moment.
Photo1 shows trees a the far end of The Wash near Boston. The Pilgrim Hospital and clock tower of the Boston Stump can be seen on the right hand half of the horizon.
Photo 2 shows a vessel roughly ten miles down the coast, used for target practice bu the miiltary.
German signals from the Aurich and Steinkimmen transmitters are S9+50dB here in broad daylight. This is a BIG tropo and, with a bit of luck, it will spread elsewhere inland this evening.
Good DX!

What a day! The third period of double hop into Turkey in less that a week and we're still only in the early stages of the season!
It began with simultaneous openings to Poland, Slovakia, Moldova and the Balkans. Istanbul appeared briefly on 87.5. Then Ankara and Adana appeared, cross fading with each other. It was clear to see which areas of Turkey were received as the two different areas of skip faded in and out independently, demonstrating that there was more than one Es opening in place.
Sanliurfa and Kayseri appeared in the south of the country, then Duzce in the north-west. Then things started getting serious with the appearance of the Van transmitter in south-eastern Turkey.
Was it going to extend further? Arabic appeared on a few frequencies. Clearly something unusual was happening. At 13:30, the biggest surprise of them all came in, right at the end of the opening. The BBC World Service's Arabic programme appeared on 89.0! I wasn't sure what I was hearing to begin with, but the words "London", "BBC" and "bbcarabic.com" were all there. Ian Kelly came to the rescue with a link to the BBC World Service Arabic podcast for the same time and, after cross-referencing everything, it became clear that what I had heard was "BBC World Service Arabic". The transmitter in Baghdad was inline with my reception, so it seems safe to assume that this was definitely double hop Es to Iraq. Two other transmitters of BBC WS Arabic are also listed on the frequency, but the Baghdad transmitter was the closest. I can't rule out this being one of the others but Baghdad may make more sense due to other Arabic stations received at the time which were also potential Baghdad transmitters.
Since this was an unusual opening, I decided to back up all my FDM-S2 files which contain the Turkish and Arabic DX. I created two Mediafire accounts where I have stored 18 files. I feel sure other stations may be identified from these in the future. They can be accessed at:

I would like to say a BIG thank you to Kurt in Istanbul for his help with my many Turkish recordings.
For the record, here are recordings of a few unidentified Arabic stations I have been trying to track down. Hopefully I may find an Arabic speaker one day who will be able to listen and spot a few clues.

What a day! The third period of double hop into Turkey in less that a week and we're still only in the early stages of the season!
It began with simultaneous openings to Poland, Slovakia, Moldova and the Balkans. Istanbul appeared briefly on 87.5. Then Ankara and Adana appeared, cross fading with each other. It was clear to see which areas of Turkey were received as the two different areas of skip faded in and out independently, demonstrating that there was more than one Es opening in place.
Sanliurfa and Kayseri appeared in the south of the country, then Duzce in the north-west. Then things started getting serious with the appearance of the Van transmitter in south-eastern Turkey.
Was it going to extend further? Arabic appeared on a few frequencies. Clearly something unusual was happening. At 13:30, the biggest surprise of them all came in, right at the end of the opening. The BBC World Service's Arabic programme appeared on 89.0! I wasn't sure what I was hearing to begin with, but the words "London", "BBC" and "bbcarabic.com" were all there. Ian Kelly came to the rescue with a link to the BBC World Service Arabic podcast for the same time and, after cross-referencing everything, it became clear that what I had heard was "BBC World Service Arabic". The transmitter in Baghdad was inline with my reception, so it seems safe to assume that this was definitely double hop Es to Iraq. Two other transmitters of BBC WS Arabic are also listed on the frequency, but the Baghdad transmitter was the closest. I can't rule out this being one of the others but Baghdad may make more sense due to other Arabic stations received at the time which were also potential Baghdad transmitters.
Since this was an unusual opening, I decided to back up all my FDM-S2 files which contain the Turkish and Arabic DX. I created two Mediafire accounts where I have stored 18 files. I feel sure other stations may be identified from these in the future. They can be accessed at:

I would like to say a BIG thank you to Kurt in Istanbul for his help with my many Turkish recordings.
For the record, here are recordings of a few unidentified Arabic stations I have been trying to track down. Hopefully I may find an Arabic speaker one day who will be able to listen and spot a few clues.
UPDATE - 30-03-20:
Many thanks to Jorge Garzón for the following information.
Regarding 89.9 and 88.3, listed below.
"Both recordings have strong Iraq accent although they don't give neither ID nor place names or clues. My two friends in the area (Both Arabs) which whom I am in contact told me that they are 100% sure these stations come from Iraq."
