Logs, Feb. 10 & 16

I just realized that I forgot to post my logs from last Sunday.  It is a bit late for posting, but there were some rare mw catches that evening.

Tonight (Feb. 16) had some very good conditions on 48 m, with very low noise levels.  Lightning made a rare appearance and I had probably my best ever reception of Hot Radio.  Lowland, Mustang, Flying Dutchman, Borderhunter and Underground all had good signals, as well as the novelty station BZN Radio. The US station Wolverine Radio seems to be back to his usual booming signal.  Mediumwave was poor, but Calipso powered through.
