at 0:200 7415 a staticy, S3

Dan / NYC; R 75 & 100 foot random Wire

S9 + 50++ using the R8 and the 200' E-W wire at 0219 UTC

Ouch, getting RF burns...

Dropping back to S9 + 40 on the 200' wire as the band starts to go longer at
0244.

The band dropped out on me a few minutes ago, and the VOA out of Botswana is
competing head to head with WBCQ!

- Same here,
News from VOA, ( S2)
Music from WBCQ ! ( S4)

I was doing fine until 0200UTC then I lost the signal all together. I was
listening to VOA 50's style American music. At 0130 they ID'd as VOA. Maybe I
wasn't even listening to WBCQ? Shortwave can sure be confusing!!!!

I have to do something about my antenna situation.
