So near and yet so far!
Today's excellent Es conditions remained just out of reach and only produced glimpses of activity at the bottom of the band. Italy was more frequently heard than the log suggests, but signals were mostly weak and messy, producing little in the way of RDS.
Good DX!

** Personal First
The first decent opening of the season with some interesting reception. I could only listen for a few minutes before having to go into town. I left the receiver recording while I was out. Greece continued to be well heard for at least another hour, before Italy took over. Lack of time prevents me from checking most of the recordings, plus I am trying not to get bogged down with another huge 'catchup' situation.
Good DX!

** Personal First
The first decent opening of the season with some interesting reception. I could only listen for a few minutes before having to go into town. I left the receiver recording while I was out. Greece continued to be well heard for at least another hour, before Italy took over. Lack of time prevents me from checking most of the recordings, plus I am trying not to get bogged down with another huge 'catchup' situation.
Good DX!

** Personal First
Not sure if this tropo was forecast as I rarely check these days, but this was a very nice surprise.
This was a good opening to Germany and the Netherlands and I concentrated on the latter as signals from the regular Dutch stations were so strong that I couldn't resist rotating the antenna to vertical to see if I could catch some locals at the top of the band. I was not disappointed! The opening was centred around areas of the Netherlands I have not previously received, so several personal firsts were caught in this lift.
Good DX!

** Personal First
Today saw Turkey coming in here - my first double hop of the season, although I am not absolutely certain it was double hop. Maybe it was just an extreme single hop as the map suggested. There were two clusters of Es on-path, but the furthest one may have been too far away.
Good DX!
