Title: 1566 TWR Benin, Africa 0330z 7/3/2013

TWR Parakou, Benin making it through the splatter tonight.  Some good audio peaks with English speaking religious talk.  I've only heard this station once before break through with audio and this was several years ago and it wasn't nearly as clear as tonight.  Very nice conditions on the MW band tonight.

That's an amazing catch for this time of year. Congrats!

Thanks Pigmeat.  I dialed around but couldn't find any other transatlantic signals poking through the AM dial.  Domestic conditions were nice and nearly static free - unusual for summer.
