More logs from Mt Olympus (22/8)

LOGS FOR 22/8 AGAIN INA VERY NOISE CLEAR PLACE
.....near the Olympus mountains
Mountains are in the W part of the place Less than 100 m height above sea

A few hit  logs. Any questions?

9380 AIR with talks in seemingly Tamil (sounded quite different than hindi unless my knowledge fainted ! ) the signal in the place is 47/20   S+N/N which is much better comparing to my Salonica ‘s place Time around 1615-17 I m keeping the same legend below ith the S/N meter

6200 Xizang PBS in English program Holy Tibet at 1623   with signal 35/xx

7140 VoBM2 with songs on 1627 and also talks on 1631 Fair in between Ssb operators

3320 Korea  on 1715 wth 20/15 with deep fading

3325 pos Palankaraya In’sia  ,just faint signal with deep fading 17/16 indications for max . Itsalso  very possible that this comes from spurious signals but cant be tested unless checked with a preselector and for verifying the signal  (the only radio with antenna input )..

BTW FYI  31.8 is the independence day in Msia
