A very good signal this morning. I also tried 6629, but it was considerably weaker, barely audible.

I think I mean I tried 6679  ;D

I need to check for more of these stations from Oceania while we seem to have favorable propagation and grayline conditions, a lot of these types of catches are seasonal.
