October 2005
At last some signals! Super strong europeans has made it hard to hear anything without
irritating splash and the DRM tests on 1611, 1530, 1485,1440 and other frequencies has not made
listening any easier. I have not had much time for listening this fall and only listened a couple of mornings before goint to work. The log could have been many times as long if only time and interest could have been found. The morning of October 8th signals from the north western NA were real strong for a minute now and then so although the signal to noise ratio was not very good a few stations made it reportable for a couple of hours. The background sound of the MW band has improved from day to day, but very slowly. It could sound much better.
So far signals have been of no interest to me.
