Longest distance 960 miles away.<br /><br />Some of the audio files were spectacular, considering 700 miles away and an indoor ferrite antenna...<br /><br />One fellow, did 43 minutes of monitoring, and got it solid for entire time from 460 miles away...<br /><br />Most of the receptions were from Midwest and some Western states, a few from east coast (Wash DC area, West Virginia, Ohio)<br /><br /><br />One report was from 25 miles from WAKR in Akron, 1590, which really was outstanding. he simply nulled the station, and we were there!"<br /><br />Thank you to Mark Heller at WGBW!<br /><br />73 de OJ<br />webmaster<br />www.kongsfjord.noOJhttp://www.kongsfjord.nonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1126984176108779019.post-46758826274422238282010-10-17T10:37:06.773Z2010-10-17T10:37:06.773ZWe will check with the station to see how many rec...We will check with the station to see how many reception reports they got and from where.

I was trying to catch them in Charlotte, North Carolina, USA--approx 950 miles away--and was unable to find them... unless, of course, they were the ones playing Orbison's "Pretty Woman" which I could detect very faintly. Never could I discern any identification.dbwnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1126984176108779019.post-34322138113105833842010-10-16T21:36:02.629Z2010-10-16T21:36:02.629ZYes, it did happen.

However, due to the disturbed conditions we were not able to catch it in Kongsfjord. Hopefully someone elsewhere were able to catch them.<br /><br />73 de OJ<br />webmaster<br />www.kongsfjord.noAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1126984176108779019.post-50320430796846433352010-10-16T18:49:34.943Z2010-10-16T18:49:34.943ZHey, did this test actually happen?
