I had to miss the majority of this fairly lengthy opening to Spain but when I did get chance to listen I concentrated on the top of the band.

Unfortunately, I will have very little time, if any time at all, to DX for the rest of this week and next due to an impending marriage! I think this is a good reason ;O) I will be marrying Jane, a radio ham like myself, on the beach here in Skegness this coming weekend. Naturally we are hoping the weather will be kind to us and it looks fair at the moment, but our area never seems to agree with the local forecasts due to this coastline bowing out into the sea slightly. At least we aren't going to see the 35 degree temperatures that were originally forecast for this weekend. Phew! The DX will have to wait for a while now.


Good DX!
