YEE HAW! I hear it! Lots of noise interference on the loop. Running outside now to another antenna.

SINPO on loop next to house:
32131


EDIT:

2000 utc

Yes, coming in loud and clear with some quick deep fades. Thanks dude! I'm so glad I caught you today! Enjoying the metal music, as I'm energized from all the running. I heard you read my report and thanks again!
 

SINPO on 43m band, half wavelength inverted V dipole:

Wind picked up so I had to take down the inverted V but I'm still enjoying you now on a remote SDR located in Netherlands.

It took me a while to figure out it was USB, it was so strong it sounded like AM with funky propagation.

SSTV on usb.  It would have come out better, but my 'puter messes up the reception a bit.

Hey cool, it turned off right at 0318 for me. I just checked my clock and it is right on. It was either KCPR or a pretty good coincidence.

It was the crystal that was busted. I installed a big honkin' FT 243 crystal and it works again, yay.

I can't tell what he's saying.

Using the loop.  I have 2 aligator clips coming out of my radio. I hooked up the positive side and I had fading, then I hooked up the negative side (to complete the loop) and the fading stopped or was minimal.

Fading makes overall reception range from 1-3.

Cool, I'm glad other people heard this.  I had a very poor copy.  I heard something on the loop that was music on 6930 USB and then I heard some data.
It didn't stay on long enough for me to get to the new inverted V in the yard (cut to 6925).

Sun is still up. I expect it to get better.  I heard a young guy with a Russian accent. Now there's some Euro-music.

Pretty good copy even with the sun UP.  I heard the Doors. I figured the topic could be 2 things: waiting or the sun.
