I have not checked much of the schedule yet but understandably 0600 to
0800 UTC on 9700 comes in well and 1900 to 2100 UTC on 17810 is very
good some days and very weak on others.

All the other transmissions from Bonaire to any part of the USA is
usually very good.

I have not checked lately but 17660 has been absent. It was very good
last summer season though. RN keeps repeating that they are
broadcasting on this frequency through the winter but I have not heard
them on it since last fall at the seasonal switch in frequencies. They
should be back on it now though but I have not heard them on it. It
should be very strong at my location.

As of this last Saturday and Sunday, I scanned for them at 19:00.
15315 was weak and noisy, 17735 was even worse and 17660 was just
a carrier down in the mud. I'm getting my best reception on
9845 at 00:00, but the 04:00 on 6165 is pretty good, but with
more local noise. (Seattle).

The geomagnetic field was unsettled last weekend so give it another go
this weekend. You should do well with 17735 and 15315 on the weekend at
19:00 to 21:00 UTC. They don't seem to be broadcasting on 17660 these
days though the schedule says they are I don't get them on it at all.
Before the schedule change last fall they were very good on 17660.

How about 9700 KHz in the 06:00 to 08:00 UTC time frame? That was a good
frequency for me.

19:00 to 20:00 UTC

Well 17660 is back. Very good reception today with strong signals on
17735, 17660 and 15315.

17810 is weaker but not bad.

I thought to check 11655 to late and missed it.

17660 was the best frequency today.
