Looks like our regular contributor to QSL Report, Patrick Martin, has been active again chasing the medium wave stations, and in particularly Asia/Pacific. Way to go Pat, and thanks for sharing them with our readers. You can bet Patrick will likely see a bevy of QSLs coming his way soon. Stay tuned! Gayle VH
Greetings,
What a morning!!! My Filipinos are back and I even logged a new one. All sorts of stuff in this morning. It would take a book to mention it all, even if I could. Pile ups on so many frequencies. It was overwheming. When I first started at the dials after 1300, it did not sound like much of a morning. The A & K were down, so I wondered. But as it got closer to 1330, things changed drastically. CC, KK, JJ, popped up everywhere. Thai on 891 was dominant for a time. One JJ , I have not heard in a while, at least to ID it was JOTR 936 Akita, really nice around 1425 with a female ancr in JJ mentioning "ABS" (Akita Broadcasting System). Long QSL'd, but still nice to hear. I have not noticed it that strong in years. What a morning. Here is a partial list.
