African Pathways 11965 AM 2035 UTC 8 Dec 2021
« on: December 08, 2021, 2123 UTC »
Received on Eton Elite Field with built-in whip antenna.  Tuned in at 2035.  Reception good with intermittent interference.  English broadcast from Madagascar.

2035. Men’s choir
2038 children’s story about Elijah
2043 “Search for a new way” message
2051 No Sugar Tonight by The Guess Who
2053 Men’s choir
2057 sign off

I’m pretty new to the hobby - it’s pretty cool to catch a signal 8,000+ miles away with just a whip.
