RX is disconnected at the moment due to severe tropical thunderstorms.
Previously tried all the AFRTS frequencies but have not had Garcia. Sometimes get Guam Will check again when conditions improve and let you know. -- John Plimmer, Montagu, Western Cape Province, South Africa South 33 d 47 m 540 s, East 20 d 07 m 541 s.

Quite unusual, as this 3 Kw TX is 18,500 kilometers from here (11,500 miles) and both the short and long path lies over the poles and the auroral belt. At this time of the year the signal gets a greyline boost, as it is sunset in Hawaii and sunrise in Montagu. Are you able to hear AFN on 12579 or 4319 from Diego Garcia? Are they still active on either of those two frequencies? I've not seen any reports of them there for a very long time. Steve Holland, MI Drake R7, R8 and R8B http://www.iserv.net/~n8kdv/dxpage.htm |
