While some friends are enjoying the exotic DX possible in Masset I'm stuck here at home in Alexandria, VA. Last night saw pretty decent TA reception so I left the Perseus recording across the 0300 utc TOH and caught my first logging of VOA Sao Tome on 1530kHz with Yankee Doodle under WCKY!
<http://realmonitor.com/stations/stp-1530.wav> Kind of special for me as I visited the site on Sao Tome while we were still negotiating for a relay station there. It's one of the last IBB MW outlets I hadn't heard from somewhere far away -- most from here in suburban DC ... except for 1575 Thailand which I had to go to Grayland to hear. Watching 'ghost traces' flow down [or up] the Perseus screen on 1548, 1566 and 1611kHz this morning before sunrise in the hope - perhaps in vain - of some audio! It's the 'hope' that keeps you going in this hobby.
