1459z off

Had very good reception today (March 14 1300 utc hour) while out raking with the PL 880 and just its whip.  As a matter of fact, RNZ was coming in very well with music before 1300 utc on 11725 with PL 880 and its whip.  Very odd 🤷‍♂️.
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."
