Re: [IRCA] New DXpedition base in Finland becomes instant success

Walt, Re your comment about the antennas, hard to say, as we've never used anything but monster Beverages, as they give the needed narrow directional effect. Bjarne Mjelde in Norway has used the QDFA as well, see more in his blog at http://arcticdx.blogspot.com/2010/10/kong20-midweek.html 73

Hi, Many thanks for your comments on my two UNIDs. I got some responses also privately, and I'm inclined to believe that the Newsradio 1330 station is indeed WHBL, which unfortunately is one of the more regular ones. The other one may not even include a call-letter ID. 73 Mika __
