BOS at home QTH log

September 2007

Slow start in September but then constant, but not very interesting, conditions.
Mostly unattended recordings of 190 kHz wide parts of the AM so many, many more stations were
present these nights. The list could have been much more complete with a couple more SDR:s, hi!
Nothing in this log was new to me I'm afraid. Except for the french speaking station on 1420.
