Listening to Short and Medium Wave broadcasts since 1962 as a DXer. Nowadays I listen to 48 and 49 meters mainly for interesting stations. If you like to send me an EQSL my email is bkavana@yahoo.com

Good evening. On Fridays the 3rd of May 2024 at 19.00 U.T.C. I could pick up Radio Cuckoo on 6296 KHz. The measure was 3/12 LED and the SINPO was 35333, here in Northern France, during an indoor reception. I sent an e-mail to radiocucko@yahoo.com and the operator replied to me within the following day by an e-mail attached with a Q.S.L. card. This radiostation was transmissing [........] by a homebuilt transmitter with tube. It played Charles
AZNAVOUR's song (18.50 UTC) then Elvis PRESLEY with Jail Rock (18.51 UTC) and Let's twist again ! (18.57 UTC). Good DX. B.L.
