** Personal Skegness 'First'
I had no idea there was any tropo the previous evening and only realised at 02:45. It then dawned on me, I could easily make a quick snapshot of the band, recording one minute sessions of each 6MHz block of the band for later perusal. That's five blocks in total, or four and a half to be more precise. Then I would just let the S2 carry on recording after that.
The tropo extended out to Garz on the north coast of Germany, to Magdeburg and Wittenburg, the latter being a new one for me. The S2 allowed me to dig really deeply into the stations using 25 or 50 kHz bandwidths. This actually helps dig out the German DX due to them having narrow bandwidth. I kept my eye on 94.0 for a while as there were three German stations there. SWR2 had classical music. Then there was pops, probably Radio Ostfriesland. But there was also a German talker. Perhaps the 100 watt DLF from Hannover. No DLF parallels were available in this section of the band unfortunately and I was not listening live otherwise I would have checked their web stream.
There wasn't much meteor scatter around overnight. A lot of it might have been blocked by the tropo, which was quite strong at times, mainly the Torfhaus, Brocken, Steinkimmen and Teutoburger Wald transmitters.
Good DX!
