List on page one has been updated.

SVO has reappeared on 12.603.5MHz heard around 0600z with ident marker "de SVO".

XSG has returned on 16.695.0MHz noted during late April into May 2026, however, XSG on 16.898.5MHz remains off air.

High noise on 6MHz means hearing XSG 0n 6.326.0 and XSQ on 6.329.0MHz very difficult, if you hear them please post with relevant details.

Chinese marker XSG on 4.215.0 CW had been signing as "de XSG" but noted the other night in July 2026 it had reverted back to the usual format and had dropped the "de" from the prefix.
