[HCDX] Domestic DX Tip



Bogdan Alexandru Chiochiu
QTH: Pierrefonds-Est, Quebec, Canada
 
Heard on a Sanyo MCD-S830 w/ internal ferrite bar loop antenna:
 
1320 CKEC New Glasgow, NS DEC 23 1711 EST - End of wx report for Northern Nova Scotia, followed by a man announcing "Right now Pet Shop Boys - West End Girls" wich is what they played (a very nice 1986 eurodisco hit with some rap); after the end of the song the man said the title again and mentioned "on CKEC", followed by another short, but detailed weather report followed by 2 Hot-AC song (one was R&B and the following was soft-rock). Excellent to occasionally fair reception, but about 12 minutes later reception deteriorated dramatically with CJMR Missisauga fading up to excellent level too, unfortunately; still had very, very brief bursts of this with near-excellent signal, playing the rock song (a bit similar to Roxette). No Latins noted on mediumwave this evening as checked 1 hour earlier (Chiochiu-QC)
 
73 and a very Merry Christmas,
Bogdan Chiochiu
