Hello To All Trans-Atlantic signals this afternoon were decent once again as another DX session was completed high above the Atlantic Ocean at Ladies Lookout on Signal Hill, my sixth 6 mile (round trip) hike this month and 53rd overall this year to the hill. The temperatures have been mild 8 to 11 Celcius and with no snow at all on the ground, the walks are very enjoyable still.
Once again the Spanish stations seemed to be plentiful during this session. 4 new stations logged overall DX Session (19:15-20:15 UT) December 8 - Receiver : SRF-M37V barefoot 531khz -ALGERIA-Alger Chaine 1 El Bouaghi 19:45 UT/8 Arabic talk (weak) 549khz -ALGERIA-Alger Chaine 1 Hamadouche 19:34 UT/8 two men in Arabic 558khz-SPAIN-Radio Nacional 5 Valencia 19:46 UT/8 man in Spanish 612khz-MOROCCO-RTM Sebaa-Aioun 20:11 UT/8 man in Arabic talk 621khz-CANARY ISLANDS-R.
