New Zealand on 17675 and Australia on 17795 and 17715 all the usual strong signal levels. Not for long. This time of year (at least up here) 15 and 17 MHz get very sensitive to the space weather and often go away not long after sunset. Friday, at 05:00 or thereabouts, there wasn't anything from the south Pacific but RNZI at 11820 and RA's Grandstand on 9660. The 15 MHz signals were fine on Wednesday. What a difference a couple days can make. 17795 is supposed to be toward North America and 17715 is to Asia but it always comes in better than 17795 for me. Do other people in North America experience that? What time? At 00:00, 17795 has been about S3, (even with a new antenna wire and treating my R-1000's antenna attenuator switch with Stabilant/Tweek contact enhancer) and 17715 was (under S1) in the mud. Same time frame 00:00 to 2:00 UTC. I usually listen on 21740 and when Australia switches off that frequency I go to 17715 or 17795. New Zealand has been very strong this evening until this time 4:00 UTC and I expect they should sound very good on 11820 about a hour from now. Australia very strong on 15515 also. Very good reception this evening where as this morning things were poor. New Zealand was very good until about 04:40 when they faded out altogether. At 05:00 when they switched to 11820 they were good at first then the signal faded. Australia no longer heard either. -- Telamon Ventura, California |
