My DX Archive: Short Wave Radio, September 2007

A SHORT post again, I'm afraid, though this post - with logs from September 2007 - heralds a break for Short Wave logs. The next radio related posting will bring logs of Medium Wave broadcasts, as I transcribe my logbooks in the order they were written up, originally taken from the folders of notes made at times of original reception.

To continue the thread of Short Wave posts, the previous post, Summertime on Short Wave, 2007 can be found here.

Housekeeping notes: Times in UTC (GMT), frequencies in kiloHertz (kHz). Transmission power in watts or kiloWatts (kW). Logs transcribed from the original notes.
