Booming signal tonight, the best I've copied since the start of the a18 season. I think a reception report will be in order.

Thank you for the tip! Armchair copy right now on 9860 kHz here in Florida, almost like a direct English Service for us Night Owls!
Florida, always listening via my Tecsun PL-660 receiver.

There's also 11970 via Issoudun. It's interesting, last summer that one was coming in well most evenings, but this summer it's been much weaker. Looking at an old copy of the eibispace a17 schedule, it doesn't appear that they were using the SMG 9860 relay.
