Antarctica - LRA36
 

ANTARCTIC About LRA36 Antarctic Territory.
Yesterday Sunday, I talk with the Sergeant in charge of the LRA36 Radio
Nacional Arcangel San Gabriel at Base Esperanza, and he inform me that
from already several weeks ago behind that the radio station is inactive
on SW for problems with the antennas those that in this moments are
repairing.

The station will be again on air from next Monday 17th April on the usual
fq of 15476 kHz from Mondays to Fridays at 1800-2100 hrs.

Ace, I've seen pictures of your wires on your site. I recall you stating
that you used some kind of switch between your wires and your radios, but
would you comment as to whether or not you're using any baluns or
transmatches? Thanks.

No trace here of LRA36 on 15476 today (or yesterday either) at 2015 check.
Propagation or just not reactivated yet?

I've given this a try every day this week. Not a sign of it. Currently,
19:25 UTC today and once again, not a trace.

Apparently a delay with reactivation on the 17th, but going to try today.
1800-2100. Best to try after 1900 when Africa #1 vacates 15475.
