Skegness Log: 14-09-14 (FM)

Band 2 Sporadic E:
 87.6 1215  S  SR P1, Multi-tx YL, as web
 
Band 2 Tropospheric:
107.8 1235 SUI RSI Rete Uno, Säntis (ar) Pops, as web. Just audible when Future Radio fades  917km


Some out-of-season Es yesterday. Well, a single out-of-season E no less. I have the video of this but the signal was trailing away once I got Bandicam recording. It wasn't strong enough for RDS but I can say without doubt this was an E and not MS.

The tropo to Switzerland was a surprise. I heard the station playing pop music, very weakly, when Norwich's Future Radio dropped out.

Good DX!
