AFRTS Pearl Harbour
10320 Khz AFRTS Pearl Harbour received at this QTH @ 0500 Zulu with clear
ID.
Quite unusual, as this 3 Kw TX is 18,500 kilometers from here (11,500 miles)
and both the short and long path lies over the poles and the auroral belt.
At this time of the year the signal gets a greyline boost,
as it is sunset in Hawaii and sunrise in Montagu.
