Very weak  - unable to pull out any audio. I did hear some slow CW "Radio" at 2114z, so I must've just missed a full ID.
2130z - Ion Radio ID in CW - lot of noise, but the O and N from Ion were clear.
2146z - signal slowly improving as dusk approaches. Bits of audio coming through. SIO 231

Equipment / Re: Lex dealing with RFI and home misfortunes

« on: September 16, 2022, 0057 UTC »

Don't sell the Palstar; I still have my R30CC (mine is an early version w/12v option on the coax) and will never part with it.  I know the radio has mixed fans, but it's a great receiver for what it does.

Agreed!
