Hausa service to Africa from 14:00 to 14:30. Strong in Ireland.

First reception by me on the 11 Metre Broadcast Band in many years.

I haven't heard anything up there since the Swedes were active up there in the early part of the century.

Picked this up a couple of days ago with music.  Thought I finally received World Music Radio.  After a bit, realized it wasn't WMR but couldn't figure out what it was as not on any online resources.  Now I know, thanks.
Tecsun H501x (broadcast received on this unless noted), Zenith T/O G500, Zenith T/O Royal 7000, Emerson AR-176, Zenith 8S154, T/O 7G605 (Bomber), Tecsun PL-600, Tecsun PL-880, Zenith 5S320, Realistic DX 160 using 40 feet of copper wire.  With apologies to Senator Gramm for his thoughts on firearms, "I have more radios than I need but not as many as I want."
