BLOG LOGS - India


INDIA The 90 meter band Indians have indeed moved from the 90 to 60 meter band. This morning at 0100 UT noted 4810, 4845 and 4965 kHz. A update a little later after say 1300 UT. This leaves our 90 meter band almost bare of anything other than the North Koreans and a sdtray Indian. Very depressing when you consider the many Latins, PNGs, Indonesians, Asians and Africans.
