Still having problems with their digital link, some characters broken with digital breakup. This transmission was only on 8992. Others were on all 4 HFGCS frequencies.
60 character message followed.
Now a 35 character message, this time on all 4 frequencies.
0303z P5SLZALEJKUO7233KGBIF4VLVLUP3BKQVO2
60 character message. This OP is good, the digital link still sucks.

IS at 2357z and into the normal program at top of the hour. Great reception this evening again on the portable receiver. Might be one of the last loggings on the A24 0001z frequency.

This might be one of the strongest signals of RRO I've heard. There were times the broadcast was hitting +40 dB.

Was somewhat weak signal, but IV and ID clearly heard.

Someone played a recording of the Lincolnshire Poacher numbers station recently. It was nice to hear LP over the HF despite the circumstances

Huge signal centered on about 6938 just went off the air at 1250z. S9+20. Went from about 6918 to 6996. Guessing it was one of the HF trading signals.

VoT S9+15 this morning 1 October. Some slight fading, but signal is so strong it doesn't really effect listening.
