A new logging

Down in Titirangi I have installed a 5m EWE pointing at roughly 60 degrees. This should put it through Mexico/ Louisianna - no such luck hearing them!

I have had a pre-amp attached and it has overloaded everything to an alarming degree. So, I have removed it.

Before doing this the only Yank I could hear was KLOK on 1170. It was coming in at a fair but very steady level with Indian music and announcements (e.g. Namaste India). A report has been sent off.

I haven't had a lot of time to listen since then but have heard Yanks on 1420, 1570, 1580. Had I had the time and persevered I am sure others could have been heard. It is certainly not a vintage season for MW DX.
