Default 1206 kHz, Radio "France Info" - WooHoo!!!

Finally, at 0517 UTC the Synch Detector
pulled it up long and strong enough for me to hear a man and women in French
talk with short bumper music between them. All for almost 1 minute. I got
so excited I had to run outside, smoke a cigarette (I don't smoke), and come
here to post this - LOL.

WAY TO GO BRO!! Good job. Your story reminds me of the first time, while on a DXpedition using 2000 feet Beverages, we all heard amazing stuff like that from OKLAHOMA! We logged (and later verified some of them) from Monte Carlo, France, Morocco or maybe it was Algeria, and a good number of Japanese stations taboot. You brought back some very fond memories there.Keep up the good work and get that Beverage in place.
