** Personal Skegness 'First'


My overnight MS recording became corrupted when saving, reducing the file length from 8 hours to just 50 minutes. Nothing could be matched up, other than shared overnight German programming.

On the Es front though, WOW! What a day! The propagation maps looked like something from the middle of summer! Signals lasted a good three hours plus with the Balkan countries dominating most of the time. Slovakia made a good presence at times and the Czech Republic and Austria poked their way through.  Greece and Albania also kept trying to take control and there was one moment were Albanian signals took over across the band. But there was very little RDS and the Greek stations were mostly impossible to trace due to a shortage of web streams. Arabic signals were heard at times and one can only wonder where they were coming from. Double hop from the Middle East? There certainly weren't many Tunisian or Algerian possibilities. Conditions didn't really seem to swing that way anyway. Certainly this was one of the more interesting Es openings of the whole season!
