Title: Radio Funkenboer (NL) 1647 AM 1830 UTC 26 December 2019

Boer is Dutch for "farmer". Funken is an adaptation of the German word Funk, meaning "radio". So the station is "Radio Farmer Radio".  ;D

Beautiful signal on SDRs in Scandinavia that have longwire antennas. (Not so much on the ones with small loops or whips.) This dude has a huge signal.

1837 UTC - ID and mentions of listeners in Sheffield, England, all in Dutch, over Dutch vocal music.
1856 UTC - Acknowledging reports in Scandinavia.
2000 UTC (approximately) - TX off the air.

ID is more likely Vonkenboer = Radio November.
