** Personal Skegness 'Firsts'

Unidentified:
104.8 1733  ?  UNID, ? 0004. The PI is correct. Serbian station?

Well, I couldn't resist it. After checking my emails and reading Sleeper's sporadic E alert I found a nice band-wide Es event to parts of Italy and the Balkans but very little of it reached RDS levels.

Good DX!
