Like yesterday morning, it looked like this was going to be a day of repetition, but that didn't last long. It still seems like certain transmitters propagate better than others via meteor scatter. This could be true of any mode of propagation, but there are usually a few nice new surprises. Videos of today's low powered Scandinavians can be found on my YouTube page.
The long meteor burst at 0523 was unusual regarding the directions received. How can the same meteor burst support reception from different directions? Maybe the fact that my antenna was vertical had something to do with this as vertical polarisation is probably not as directional as you might imagine, not even with multiple elements. The transmitters at Gävle and Sarpsborg are inline with each other, but what about Clermont carn and Sandale? It seems clear to me that the meteor itself is more responsible for the direction than is the antenna. Nothing can be taken for granted!
Good DX!

Low Power Scandinavian Meteor Scatter
These two were a really nice surprise this morning. My Körmer 9.2 antenna was vertical at the time, beaming 60 degrees straight into southern Sweden. These two are low powered transmitters, Radio Øst having only 376 watts. Both stations were stable and strong enough to allow full RDS! You just never know what will be thrown up by meteor scatter.

Tomorrow I will beam vertically towards Denmark/southern Sweden.

This was a great morning for meteor scatter with lots of less common DX and plenty of new additions to the log. There were dozens more good meteor bursts which didn't produce RDS because of co-channel QRM or were just slightly too weak.
Paris was represented very nicely in a birst at 0417. All the meteor bursts tied in with Parisienne stations though only two of them produced RDS.
Videos of the best bits have been uploaded to my YouTube page. Yes, I know I keep saying I am going to switch to Vimeo and I know I should do this sooner rather than later. Force of habit.

There were quite a few good bursts this morning but almost all of them had multiple stations on each frequency, so RDS was again quite scarce. But I am really pleased to add Ukraine as a new country today, bringing the total number of countries positively identified by meteor scatter to 38 (Ref: DXCC Countries List).
A 90 minute meteor session recording during the late evening added nothing.
Good DX!

Westdorpe suddenly shot up out of the noise on meteor scatter this morning on its 97.8 frequency. Reception lasted about a second and was not present either side of this, so definitely not aircraft scatter. Quite a few Dutch stations have been heard here on meteor scatter but this country is becoming notoriously difficult to get RDS when received via MS.
That Italian "Cesena" transmitter continues to pop up when the 9.2 is vertical. There isn't much more to get from that tx and I will have the entire set! I still find it amazing how certain 'less likely sporadic E contenders' are so regular on meteor scatter.

** Personal 'First'
Horizontal again today, beaming south-east. This is a log of everything identified. I am pretty sure the Arabic stations on 93.9 and 97.2 are from the Kef El Akhal. I think it makes sense so I have logged both are "Presumed".
Tomorrow it's back to vertical but beaming closer to the south in the hope of catching something local from France and Spain.
Good DX!
