And yet more loggings

Night three at Hina Hina saw conditions improve a little. Yanks were now audible at much better levels than they were on the previous two nights. However, they still aren't strong enough to combat splash from the locals. Most stations suffered from deep fades.

Things are on the up and hopefully night 4 will be even better.

A Verie

 Success ..... WBBM 780 in Chicago, Illinois heard two nights ago have verified my report. I heard a very good id and that was all. However, a short audio recording was enough to confirm my report. The verie signer was Ron Gleason, Brand Manager/ News Director (wbbmnewsradioweb@entercom.com)

DXing Again ..... Finally

 With the October school holidays ariving, I have taken the opportunity of heading south to Hina Hina, on the South Otago coast, 25 minutes south of Balclutha and 1600 km by road from Auckland. 

Steven Greenyer and I are here for a couple of days and will then be joined by Arthur DeMaine. We woke up this morning to snow on the ground!
