Thanks so much for the heads up Ace.
I must admit catching them now on their directional antenna is a lot
harder than when they used the old omnidirectional one.

Still have my QSL card from catching them on 1548 MW.

I had thought in the past that they had used a pretty much fixed antenna aimed
at Ascension, as it was an utility transmitter that they were using at the time.
