September 2006
It is getting better and better... A few new ones this early in the season could indicate the beginning of an interesting fall/winter? KCOR was a nice surprise but CKDO was a calculated signal here. Not new to me as I have heard them on 1350 before. September 17 was interesting the 60+ minutes I did listen with a fine MN opening. Else the aurora has been negative here when reception i southern Scandinavia has been OK. After a couple of days without signals 23rd were OK and it sounds like more is to follow. September 28th and the rest of the month I listened in Parkalompolo. Compare PAX63 log.
