Thanks. It would be a fitting article for alt.radio.pirate.

Feel free to post it there.

Just wondered if you were aware of that group :-)

Yes, I'm aware of it, but not involved there.

No problemo.


It's generally pretty dead on the shortwave bands here in Sweden.
The sunspot number is 2 or something at the moment, so I guess that's
the main reason...


Terrible conditions here as of late as well, this past DX season was a bummer other than
hearing and QSL'ing PMA Radio (The Cross) out of Micronesia back in October.


Yes indeed. I just bought a Sangean ATS-909, perhaps not the "sharpest
knife in the toolbox", but good enough for casual listening, I guess.
I use a simple indoors wire antenna in the ceiling.


Hm... looking at spaceweather.com, I see that the sunspot number for
today is suddenly at 34. Maybe I should take a listen...
