** Personal Skegness 'First' via the respective mode
* This tropo was sudden and unexpected.
* It was the strongest Dutch tropo I have known since moving here four years ago.
* It wasn't forecast!
Had it not been for the Skywaves alert from Matt in Grimsby I might
never have known this was happening, so a BIG thank you Matt.

These are selected clips of the above tropo. I didn't record all of it
as I don't have the time to go through hours of editing, so I kept
pausing until necessary. I haven't checked through these recordings so I
wouldn't be surprised if I was recording when I thought I was paused,
and vice versa, as I was concentrating on the DX more than I was on the
recording itself.
Good DX!
