** Personal Skegness 'First'

I am pleased to report reception of the 60 watt studio link of Radio 700 from Kall on 87.45. This is probably 'just' making it through on general scatter too, but it's so weak and in the background noise levels that it's impossible to be certain. I could hear the sub-bass of the music when scatter peaked on other frequencies in that direction. A video of this can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jf3xafi1UyM but please use headphones and 'turn up the bass', as Tyree Cooper used to say.

Scratch it up out there!

Good DX!
