It's been a long time since I can remember there being very much on this
band, and it was never as widely used as the other tropical bands.....


Not a very crowded meter band, but I like to try every now and then. Last
night at about 2000 UTC there were some Africans: Trans World Radio from
Swaziland and Family Radio from South Africa, 3200 and 3215 kHz if I can
remember correctly. Propagation was quite good here in Europe, on 60 meters
I heard several African stations and some Brazilians and even Papua New
Guinea on 4890 kHz.
I used an old Sony 2001D with 20 metres of random wire.
