this was a crude recording using my mobile phone.
The setup here is a portable SWL station, using a Kenwood R-5000, 20ft end fed dipole hanging from a squid pole.
This was recorded on 3rd August @ 0545utc

Wow thats great DX from your location! For me its right in my back yard.I love the squidtenna concept! SWL...Calamari anyone?

 

[SCPD]

WOW great catch and my neck of the woods

This is actually San Francisco radio on 13261 kHz. Flight callsign is Vee Oz 7. We were both listening at the same time, because I also heard this exact same transmission Audio from California. 13261_VeeOz7_wkg_SanFrancisco.mp3
Pacific was wide open since we both copy it well

 

[zl2taw]

oops thanks Brandon, you are correct, now I feel like an idiot
I had a few recordings here, but thats 13.261 which is also Brisbane, Auckland & Nadi which I would have been tuned to.
Thanks for clearing that up

sorry people, wrong title, but still dx

 

[brandon]

no worries man. It's still a great catch. That is one of my favorite freqs to listen... now if I could actually be in the South Pacific it would be even better

 

[majoco]

SFO starts to give good signals here on 8867 in the late afternoon - although I believe the transmitter for the South Pac 2 area is actually on Hawaii.

 

[zl2taw]

yeah its pretty good here, now I am back at work its only weekends that I can get out for a listen

btw Martin, I use to live a couple hours away from you in New Plymouth....I was ZL2TAW

 

[majoco]

Yeah, I noticed that your QTH was Qld in the Callbook. 73's

My ex's family all came from around NP - know any Adlam's?

We had an Inglewood High School reunion in the 80's - she had over 40 cousins and over 200 more distant!
