Arab, Spanish stations tuned etc.....


I'm currently logging the stations and have uploaded a couple videos onto Youtube.

(I don't know why, but it seems to go out of sync, its ok on my media player, but on youtube itself its out)

Cheers for the heads up, ill have a tune around :-)

Anything noticed on 2m/70cm?

[o_blackburn]

2m and 70cm seems to be flat. If you're lucky it might go up to 2m but its not often. as it is now, its only the bottom half of the VHF band thats active, anything above 100mhz seems to be flat.

Apparently 6m has been good as well, and of course 27mhz.

You'll noticed that I've re-named this thread, seems a good idea to use this thread rather than create a new one everytime conditions are good. Anything to do with the VHF broadcast band and propagation, whether it be Sporadic E or Tropo, if you've logged stations etc...use this thread!

Makes it tidier for Simon lol

Thanks Oliver, you might want to move this thread to the DX TV and Radio Forum - might be best discussed there? I'll move it for you later today

To be honest, I completely forgot about that forum...silly me! #-o
