** Personal Skegness 'First'
I had to go out this morning and missed most of the opening. I watched remotely, helpless as TeamViewer software just froze while Bulgaria was coming through. This was extremely annoying. After several attempts I finally managed to get CamStudio (I hate it with a passion) t record what was coming in on 87.6. An hour or two later, still connecting remotely, I stopped CamStudio to save the file. Of course it crashed and I lost the lot. So I swore (I did, believe me!) that I would invest in a full and registered version of Bandicam, so I did. That's the last time CamStudio messes up my DXing!
Luckily, my return home saw the Es opening still in progress and it was a decent top-of-the-band opening to the Balkans with quite a few personal firsts, some of which were less than 1kW. A bit of detective work solved most of my unids, though a few remain. Signals were very good, reaching 50dBf at best, without RF or IF boost!
