Today saw the biggest Es opening so far this season. Spain was in full swing by 1100. There were smatterings of Portugal and Morocco at this time and a few brief appearances of Algeria, Tunisia, Greece and Bulgaria, but it was the intense Italian opening, which kicked in at 1700, setting today aside from the relatively dismal season we have had so far. Initially, conditions were finely tuned to two areas in the south of the country, centering around Campania/Basilicata and Sicilia/Calabria. Once the Napoli and Roma areas kicked in there were very good signals across the whole band and it became difficult to determine the transmitter sites, plus we had the effect of the RDS not forming easily due to the onslaught. Even PI codes struggled, despite very good signals. But it was a very welcome opening.
In total, 397 stations were logged from 11 countries. This is my second largest logbook and there are 120 personal firsts.

Checking the recordings and compiling this log took ten days. At this rate I'll be checking July's openings at Christmas! There's no question that I have spent far too long on radio and less time on domestic matters recently so a reversal of priorities is underway.
At its peak, all the frequencies from my strongest local transmitters, Belmont, Tacolneston and Peterborough, disappeared and the band turned to mush. I noticed that 94.9 BBC Radio Lincolnshire in particular just didn't exist for several minutes at a time. With openings like this, you realise just how overwhelmingly strong sporadic E signals can get. Even flea powered transmitters from more than 1000 km are suddenly capable of knocking out your local transmitter. My examples are not the best either - I heard from other DXers who live closer to higher powered transmitting stations, and they too reported that these giants had fallen under the weight of the intense Es.
Using a 6 MHz SDR receiver really lets you see how the skip path moves around, making transmitter identification much easier. It wouldn't have been possible to identify most of these had I been DXing 'single-frequency' and, as Janpeter correctly states, it's as if you are conducting a bandscan in that locality. Nothing gets past you!
I find myself questioning whether I really need to log so many stations, but if I don't, then Ait isn't so easy to calculate the Es path and all the transmitter sites.
I made too many recordings and so I decided to play back one file every five to ten minutes as I (incorrectly) thought that the conditions wouldn't have moved around much in such a short space of time. Plus I would have needed more time were I to check every recording. However, out of curiosity, I did play back one or two random files after I had compiled the log, just to see if anything different had appeared. It had. New stations were still appearing out of nowhere, even if just for five or ten seconds.
Quite a few stations I logged revealed different PI codes or slightly different PS names to those which appear in FM List. Particularly the Spanish stations.
I only included the PI code in some of the loggings, but the full PS m=may have appeared after this, I'm sorry to say but I don't always have the appetite to go back and add the PS name, unless it is of interest. SDR DXing on band 2 is great fun, but challenging. This was quite a frantic DX session and I'm sure there will be bigger openings than this in the weeks ahead. Hopefully I haven't made too many mistakes, but please don't be afraid to point any out if I have. I go into 'auto-mode' at times with this method of DXing. I can't rule out my brain cell collapsing under the weight of all this. It's intense!
Good DX!
