Again slightly short notice but only received in my inbox over night ...
After 'difficult' conditions last week FRS have scheduled a repeat for tomorrow on 5810Khz only.
Hopefully they will have more success, last week I could get anything on either frequency direct or via the 3 webSDR's I tried in the London area.
At the moment it hardly seems worth turning the radio on - every report on here seems to include the word 'trace', 'weak' and 'noise'. Apart from LHH and Harmony (which are both noise affected) I don't think I have got even a reasonable signal whenever I check the posts from Ray and others.
Anyway here's FRS's announcement ...
Dear FRS Friends,
Next Sunday September 8th FRS will repeat last Sunday's broadcast which suffered from very poor/ unstable propagation conditions.
That means once again a start at 16:52 UTC/ 18:52 CEST. Frequency: only 5810 kHz. It looks like higher freqs like 7700 suffer from
very long skip nulling out reception in large parts of out target area. We hope for better/stronger reception but realize that the current
conditions simply are (very) poor!
Sunday Sept. 8th 16:52- 21:00 UTC 5810 kHz ...FRS' 39th Anniversary featuring Jan, Bert, Dave, Peter & Mike. Tune in!
Have a good weekend,
73s Peter V. (on behalf of the entire FRS Family).
