The 5m EWE is up
... and the signals are coming in - they haven't been great, but they are there. The problem with a SE pointing EWE up north is that in order to catch the Latin signals, you have to go through all the NZ ones. On the SDR I can see all the carriers on 10kHz spacings, but the locals are just too strong.
I have managed to hear Radio Capital in Lima, Peru on 1470 and I think it may have been Radio Bandolera in Mexico on 1410. However, others are also lurking and just waiting to be heard....
I haven't had an opportunity yet to listen at the crucial period an hour before sunset. However, this weekend might just be the time. My wife and I now have jobs down in Auckland - about 120km away. We are down there from Monday-Friday and home at the weekend. Saturday night is the night to listen!
