I have not checked much of the schedule yet but understandably 0600 to
0800 UTC on 9700 comes in well and 1900 to 2100 UTC on 17810 is very
good some days and very weak on others.

All the other transmissions from Bonaire to any part of the USA is
usually very good.

I have not checked lately but 17660 has been absent. It was very good
last summer season though. RN keeps repeating that they are
broadcasting on this frequency through the winter but I have not heard
them on it since last fall at the seasonal switch in frequencies. They
should be back on it now though but I have not heard them on it. It
should be very strong at my location.


As of this last Saturday and Sunday, I scanned for them at 19:00.
15315 was weak and noisy, 17735 was even worse and 17660 was just
a carrier down in the mud. I'm getting my best reception on
9845 at 00:00, but the 04:00 on 6165 is pretty good, but with
more local noise. (Seattle).
