I'm trying to stay on higher HF frequencies to decrease the evening static noise with my low power.  It seems noisiest over France this evening, less in other parts of Europe. Noise may decrease later. Thanks for the report, Ray.

Hi, listening on the PL-680 portable indoor with simple wire on the floor loop. Noisy but audible and I understood the jingle.
I have to crank the volume up all the way on narrow bandwidth or use wide which is louder and noisier.

Anyway nice with such small power.

Thanks, Ronald.  It seems my vertical is working ok for low angle.  Yes, because of the low power, my signal can be unstable with long skip into Slovakia, Poland, Austria and Hungary tonight. Thanks for your report from central slovakia

Later I'm only catching some fragments when the signal gets better. Then it fades out.
At UTC 2023 was good for a brief moment.

Thanks, that's good to hear. Things seem to improve after sunset at the moment

You have done well to receive me with an indoor antenna.... at such a distance
