Hello AM Lovers,

My wife and I were back home from shopping.
In our livingroom we drinking coffee and eating something...
I listen there and heard a station calling cq on 21.430 in AM!

Then I 'running' to my studio and tuning the antenna 1:1.
But did I hear it correct..... I could not believe!
I heard N1EU Barry calling, with slow fading!!!
His signal between S2 to S8 and no problem to hear him.
Later I worked W2IQK Carl on the same freq. 21.430 in AM
His signal, with heavy fading, between S1 to S7.

Evenso I could receive both stations weak with my Indoor Loopant.

I used my old Yeasu FT 910 with gives only 10 Watts.
The antenne: dipole 2x +/- 25 meters wire hanging n - s and +/- 11 meters high.

Thanks for the fine qso in AM.

Thanks for the QSO Hank!  Band was in great shape but no other European AM'ers were active.

Hello KL7OF,
Mostly when I can, I listen between 21.420 - 21.430 in the (late) afternoon.
Last days I heard on 21.430 sometimes AM, but very weak...

The same today and I am 100% sure I heard on 21.430 a station.
Time around 17.30 hour by me (= 15.30 UCT) (http://time.unitarium.com/utc/)
I heard only sometimes a word, no more....

Greetings,

Hello AM Lovers,

Last Sunday I worked Michel VE2XK on 21.420 in AM.
His signal were between S3 - S7 with less fading.

On his site I saw his huge antenna!

This afternoon I heard Michel again in our livingroom.
But his signal were weak to fair.
It were not necessary for me to walk to my studio...

Greetings,
