Medium wave DX: Radio Keralam 1476 kHz, United Arab Emirates copied with the Icom IC-R8600

 Hi there, great to hear the UAE again on medium wave. Their signal has been stronger in Oxford, but the Icom still does a great job of demodulating the available signal.

Recorded on 01/04/26 at 00:37 hrs UTC using a Wellbrook ALA1530 magnetic loop antenna (outdoors), via a Bonito/NTi AntennaJet RF splitter. Thanks for watching and 73.

Hi there, great to hear New York Radio again, this time on the world's greatest ever shortwave portable (just) the Eton E1. Only the Sony ICF-2001D comes (very) close. But the PBT just edges it for me, for the E1.
