DX TRIP TO KURTH KILN RESERVE
I'm back!
It's been several months since I posted on this blog. I have been unwell during this time with hospital visits and surgeries (....and, unfortunately, more to come!).
My advice: Don't get old! It's overrated!! 😜
But I needed to return to the great Aussie bush and do some DXing. So, I did a short trip on October 31, 2023, just after the commencement of the B23 transmission season. I took the ever-reliable Tecsun PL680 and a reel of wire out to Kurth Kiln Reserve, about 90 minutes from my home QTH. In under one hour of listening, I found there was plenty to hear on the bands, including some very weak signals that I wouldn't normally hear at home.
Check out the video below:
Thanks for watching!
73 and good DX to you all
