Wow! What is happening? Another superb opening which would have been more in keeping with mid-simmer.
I have the gift! Yes, I have discovered that Sod's Law can work in reverse. On THREE occasions this year, I have sat down at the computer, with the intention of going through some more sporadic E files from the summer. On ALL three occasions, I switched on the radio to find the FM band full of Es, thus preventing me from catching up. I would have ignored these openings were they only scraping the bottom of the band, but they have all been substantial Es events. The first was on January 1st when auroral Es took over the band. Then came January 3rd with a solid opening to the French Riviera. Then came this one. Good, solid signals and, at times, very congested 'soupy' mess from north-east Italy, Austria and south-east Germany. Throw in a bit of Balkan activity and you have an impressive mid-winter Es opening. Luckily, I was well placed for this one.
Signals were good and many strong locals got toppled. Belmont 93.1 was a surprise as that is usually unshiftable. BBC Lincolnshire and Lincs FM were wiped out at times too.
Many personal firsts were recorded as this opening favoured the extreme north-east of Italy - an area which has generally eluded me over the years. I have never heard Venice before, until today! Come to think of it, I don't recall seeing Venice in any other logs, though I'm sure it must have been reported before. It's certainly a rare one here.
Then to top it all off I had sporadic E to Germany! It's the sort of reception you might hear once in the summer here, but never in winter. German stations were on almost every other frequency, but most were too weak for RDS.
I heard what I presumed was the Ladin language on several frequencies, 97.4, 97.8, 104.7 come to mind, but I may have been confusing this with other languages, Romantch for instance, or maybe Austrian German.
This opening was so good and so out of character for the time of year that I have uploaded the best of the files to my Mediafire account. See here:
Good DX!
