I picked them up faintly on 7115 during the late evening on Nov 14- did'nt
record the time. Passport lists this english freq for times 23:00 to
00:30UTC. Listening in S.W. Missouri. Forget about the clouds- as long as
there is no lightening in the area, the local weather makes little
difference to SWL; there are too many other things to goof up reception.
This is my hobby when I can't use a telescope!

It seems that quite a few DXers are also amateur astronomers. I find
that in both hobbies, the support (antenna or mount) is just as
important as the main
instrument (receiver or telescope).
