Good band conditions today. UK FM channels 14, 15, 19, 29, 30, 31 and others were coming in mid-afternoon on the U.S. East Coast, with UK FM CB channel 19 QRG 27.78125 MHz FM 27.781 MHz FM being basically nonstop. Mexican taxi cab radio dispatch traffic mixing in with UK FM CB chatter on 27.785 MHz AM mixing with 27.781 MHz FM.
26.765 MHz AM also very good signal this afternoon (more taxi cab radio dispatch traffic) plus Spanish language chatter all over the band, up above 29.7 MHz. UNID Spanish language two-way chatter on 31.225 MHz, 31.400 MHz and several other frequencies that fall within a 12.5 kHz / 25 kHz band spacing band plan (vs. the more commonly found 20 kHz spacing for VHF low band). UNID source, I know that belongs in the VHF low band forum (I already posted about it there).

Sure enough, 11m DX was rolling much of the day when I occasionally checked. :)
0056z - 27385l - 11m propagation is going weak signal here, but Australia/NZ and potentially European DX noted. Airspy HF+D and 31' vertical.
