April has been a fair month for NDBing but I am still yet to break the 4,000km barrier this way, and not through the lack of trying, with the summer storm season over the noise level has decreased and thus I hope to achieve better distances.
The beacons logged around the best distances, I tend not to bother with anything under 2,000km unless it's an ATNO for me which are few and far between:

A friend of mine in North Queensland has reported his first Indonesian (four logged) NDB's for this season so I hope the path extends further south over winter...
