Propagation - Nothing to report today.
June 27, 1999
Propagation - Nothing noted. 87.6 is splattered by both R Wimbledon and a pirate. Also a pirate on 87.9 in addition to the satelite tuner spurious emission from Southall on 87.85 ... in fact a quick scan produced 13 other pirates in the 100-108 MHz range alone, obviously there are yet more between 88-100 MHz. Weekends are definately not good times for dx-ing from here.
Non-dx - Following London pirates noted today with RDS

Propagation - Lots of Tunisia today on 87.6. In fact I even drove into work at 1020 GMT listening to it on the car radio, yet nothing else dx-wise was coming in. A pretty steady signal with slow fades. More like a tropo or shortwave type signal.
