Saturday May 27

The Latvia transmitter on 9290 was busy this morning before it closes down next month for maintenance. I heard Radio Six signing off at 0659 to be followed at 0700 by German station Radio Caroline Eifel for an hour long programme. Then at 1000 another German station, Radio Casablanca was on with a hour of German pop and schlager.

Down on 48 metres Radio Valencia heard on 6309 @ 1405 with schlager, pop and rock until 1500 (34333).

ROZ heard at 1745 on 6265 with an ad for the summer meeting, oldies, schlager. Some SSB QRM. (33333). Still going strong at 2000.

On 75 metres, UK stations Radio Pandora on 3910 (33433) and Radio Galaxy on 3925 (33433) were on but not being heard too well here.

Later on Radio Scotland Int made a short test on 6308 @ 2215. Good signal here (44444). Announced web address of www.radioscotland.nl After he went off at 2220 Radio Zodiac heard on 6308 calling RSI but didn't get a response.

A new station on 6294 was Radio Chaos with a programme of dance music @ 2240. Another good signal (44444) and gave email address of radiochaos48@hotmail.com Said was hoping to reach the USA, but not admitted conditions not good for transatlantic DX, although had had 30 responses from Europe.
