Furusato No Kaze / Japan

Caught this at approximately 14:50 UTC – 16 November @ 9.560mhz – best results were on the random wire.

And a short clip – audio was almost sketchy – they are running 300KW and for this time of day and conditions they are doing a decent job with it – I will figure this video stuff out eventually – really I will . . .

I had read about this issue in the past – here’s a shot of Paul Simmonds page – Link HERE . . .

Folks – if anybody says “there’s nothing on shortwave” – chances are they bought a $30 dollar pocket radio on amazonia and don’t really have a clue what they are doing . . . there is site after site – on the utube as well as static pages on how do do “this” – it’s really no magic or mystery to it – like anything else – there is a right way and a wrong way – you will tend to have more success at SWL by doing it as right as you can . . .

Slowly working through the bird’s nest of wiring on the bench – think really BAD cast with a bait caster – that will get you in the ball park – LOL! Going to be stupid busy this next week – we are doing Thanksgiving dinner here – next Sunday – Yippee Skippy and all that stuff – will try to get you folks something up for tonight and Sunday – but time is becoming a rare commodity at this point . . .

Have Fun! – Run the Gun! – and remember – Fish Heads are Cheap!!
