2158 music, 2200 blank ?, 2202 music
congrats Ray !
i was at 50 watts carrier when you heard me form the northern east coast of the US.
i generally end broadcast at 2200z but i extended it for a little bit for testing since i was preparing a good friend of mine for remote broadcasting to my station in the near future.
I already heard a carrier on 6880.0 at 2030 utc, but no audio at all, so I did not report it: it could have been anything from elsewhere. Then, at 2200 utc, the NA path is just opening (a bit earlier with the automn soon beginning). But it was not easy listening at all, and I was almost falling from my chair (midnight here), so I did not stay listening.
The merit for good receiving here is due to the antennas :
doublets (center-fed) with bifilar line and balanced ATU. Presently, I have two doublets, a far one with a twisted line, and a near one with open line (often stronger, but not so quiet). For weak signals, I have to tune the system carefully.
Hope to hear you again on 6880 before 2200 during the next weeks .
Ray
