[A-DX] Fw: [BDXC-UK] RE: Horizon FM 6245 kHz

[Wolfgang Bueschel]

Der irische Anorak Pirat Horizon FM von 5780 war 2 Wochen nicht zu hören.

Seit dem Wochenende ist er im 48 maritime radio meterband auf
6245.003 kHz wieder aufgetaucht.

Wer sehr, sehr, sehr gute Antennen hat, hört vielleicht pop mx Häppchen auch
in Deutschland. Bei Hans in Lübbecke ist die Musik zu erahnen. Twente SDR
zeigt ein dünnes Fädchen ohne Audio Chance.
