[HCDX] Log Report for Al Muick - 18 November
QTH: Kandahar Airfield, Afghanistan
RX: WinRadio G303e
ANT: 100m longwire
9500 18 NOV, 1815 UTC, SWAZILAND, TWR with african-accented preacher
thumping the bible for all it was worth. Not sked'ed per EIBI and AOKI,
but here at 1800 nonetheless. Good signal but beat up on by BBC on 9505.
9605 18 NOV, 1746 UTC, CLAN, Voice of Meselna Delina heard in presumed
Tigrinya (sounds a lot like Arabic to me) with east African music and
long talks by a woman. Went to pop music at 1759 for about ten seconds
and then left the air. Something left at the end of the tape, maybe.
About ten seconds after the transmitter left the air, the BBC came up in
French. Excellent signals from Samara, Russia with no QRM and some
minor fading.
11730 18 NOV, 1730 UTC, PHILIPPINES, Radio Pilipinas in Tagalog with
male announcer reading news headlines. EIBI says this should be English
and AOKI doesn't list it. Great. Powerhouse signal with no QRM and
minimal fading.
11760 18 NOV, 1616 UTC, CLAN, Voice of Oromiyo Revolution with east
African music and long-winded rants by a man. Good signals and no QRM.
>From Wertachtal. Will also try Media Broadcast for a QSL. Maybe get a
2-for-1 deal out of this!
I'm off to Dubai in about 6 hours for a course and exam. I will be back
in the dust of Kandahar on 27 November, Thanksgiving Day. Hope everyone
has great DX until then!
