MASSIVELY MONSTER Signal from VOA 11850kHz in Hausa

[DXerPaulAK]

This was from Mon Jan 23 at 2044UTC here in McGrath Alaska. 11850kHz comes from Sao Tome & Principe with 100KW beamed at east Africa. The signal on this day was S9+50 with absolutely zero fading or noise at all. It was BETTER then anchorage AM's with 50KW only 250 miles away. One shortwave engineer I know said, "That reception is as strong as if you were just a few miles away from the site"

I use this radio, a DXE preamp, EmTechZM2 tuner and Wellbrook loop
