Winter E's 2011

With things rather dead at the moment (just some Western Victoria tropo this morning, which seems to be almost a daily reception at this time of the year to some degree), I thought I would look back at Winter 2011.

Last Winter was the first time I managed to log Sporadic E during that season.  While Summer is the predominate period for receiving SpE, a small window of opportunity does become available in Winter.  For me, the date of reception was June 6th and July 6th.

  1. Excellent blast-from-the-past! July 6 was a beauty for Sporadic E. Check out page 2. http://fmdx.au.com/doc/7_2011.pdf

    Which western Victorians are you hearing via permanent troposcatter (presumably)? Is the stinking BO part of the haul?

  2. The Western Victorians are the Mount Dundas ones: 91.7, 92.5, 93.3, 94.1 & 94.9. 95.7 Nhill is another one, which is pretty easy to get and if the previously mentioned aren't at bad levels, 88.9 Horsham.
