Re: [HCDX] Hard-Core-DX Digest, Vol 104, Issue 28



Karel,

I fondly recall that the former Czechoslovakia operated station OMA from the CZ
Academy of Sciences on a couple of alleged "standard" channels, but also highly
mutant/non-standard 3170 kHz for many years (which was widely heard worldwide).
This, along with the former DDR's Nauen STFS station on highly
mutant/non-standard 4525 kHz, provided phenomenal listening pleasure for me in
the late 1970's (sometimes I would keep either tuned in to for hours at a time
just to take in the gratitude of the glorious seconds sounders), to the point
that these were sufficient enough to retain my interest in DXing to this day.
