Hi there, a decent copy of the Voice of Korea on a warm afternoon - 21/05/26 at 15:52 hrs UTC using one of my Wellbrook ALA1530 magnetic loops, via the Bonito/NTi AntennaJet RF splitter. Thanks for watching and 73.

Rádio Nacional da Amazônia 6180 kHz, Brazil, booming into Oxford on the IC-R75 and Wellbrook loop

Hi there, this is one of the strongest regional stations on shortwave...but it has a large area to cover anyway....Brazil is a large country. The IC-R75 is so good on sideband, but when adjacent signals allow, AM Wide delivers quite nice audio. Recorded in Oxford UK on 29/05/26 at xx:xx hrs UTC. Thanks for watching and 73.

Audio copied from Radio Tarma, Peru 4775 kHz using the brilliant Icom IC-R75 - more hard-core DX

Hi there, I was wondering whether Tarma were TXing on reduced power....but here they are again, this time on the wonderful IC-R75 Recorded in Oxford UK on 29/05/26 at 00:30 hrs UTC using a Wellbrook ALA1530 magnetic loop antenna (outdoors). Thanks for watching and 73.

Rare audio from Radio Mosoj Chaski 3310 kHz Bolivia - this is proper hard-core DX!

Mosoj Chaski is one of those stations that can be almost impossible to hear from Europe, so DX that can be obtainable doesn't come much more challenging than this. Recorded in Oxford UK on 20/05/26 at 00:32 hrs UTC using a Wellbrook ALA1530 magnetic loop antenna, via a Bonito/NTi AntennaJet RF splitter and a GI1000 galvanic isolator. Thanks for watching and 73.

rst copy of Rostov VOLMET on 2941 kHz since August 2020 - using the Icom IC-R8600 + ALA1530

Hi there, I can't believe it's been nearly six years since I last copied Rostov VOLMET on this frequency. That time I was using my Panasonic RF3100L and a long wire antenna from the car. How times change lol. Recorded on 20/05/26 at 00:28 hours using a Bonito/NTi AntennaJet RF splitter and a GI1000 galvanic isolator. Thanks for watching and 73.

S32 The Squeaky Wheel, Скрипучее Колесо 3363.5 kHz copied with the Icom IC-R8600

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rYw3KY6J7aY

Hi there, the old squeaky wheel tone changed to a pip in August 2023 which made copying this signal ever so slightly less interesting lol. However, for the sake of my signal log, here it is! Recorded in Oxford UK on 20/05/26 at 00:14 hrs UTC using a Wellbrook ALA1530 magnetic loop antenna (outdoors) via a Bonito/NTi AntennaJet RF splitter and a GI1000 galvanic isolator. Thanks for watching and 73.

Comparing the audio from the JRC NRD252 and 535 using CRI's signal from Mali, E. Africa on 17630 kHz

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGRvqqM0qds

Hi there, the JRC NRD535 is supposed to have better audio than the 525. Here they are connected to the same antenna using the CRI transmission from Mali. I can't separate them really - let me know your thoughts. Thanks for watching and 73.
