[HCDX] Logs from March 12-13
These logs are a bit dated, but I thought I would post them anyway. All
are gleaned from my Perseus recordings during a DXpedition to
Meeman-Shelby Forest State Park in western Tennessee on March 12-13,
2011. I have many more hours of recordings to peruse, and unless anyone
objects, may post more logs as time permits. The electrically quiet
conditions during the DXpedition make for more enjoyable DX on these
month old recordings than the QRN I usually have to deal with at the
home QTH.

s/on greetings, woman with echo. Latin vocals with occasional

good signal except for huge CODAR, could not stay with it close enough
to hear an ID, so logging as tentative.
