[cma-l] Funky SX and the Lille tranmitter

[Two Lochs Radio]

Yes, as you say, it can work both ways - we also got a QSL request email from a DXer in Sweden who'd picked up our 106.6 broadcasts.

  When we get stations coming in strongly from places like Spain - that's usually caused by sporadic-E. It's a phenomenon where signals bounce off ionized clouds and can last minutes or just seconds. Last month I heard a station from Morocco on FM stronger than our local Heart in Dorset sitting in my car. This is different from the tropospheric effect where French stations start coming in loud and clear. Works both ways though - we got a report of being heard in Sweden on 92.3 via sporadic E. 


  The wonders of radio propogation. Nothing you can do about it.
