Propagation - Twenty five minute Sporadic E opening to Spain and Portugal this morning. Then a gap until the band opened up to Italy, San Marino and the Balkans up to 108 MHz for two and a half hours. Couldn't listen very much as I was otherwise distracted by my 3 year old son riding his bike. DX does come second! Also a lot of the time, there was so much noise across the band, that nothing was RDS-ing apart from the local London stations.
