Despite the brevity of the test transmission and the short notice, we had reception reports (several cccompanied by mp3 recordings) from Italy, Spain,. Belgium, Germany, Scotland, England, Belarus, Nigeria, China, Peru, the USA and Australia.
The quality of reception varied a lot of course, but we were delighted with the unexpected response.
Our first “official” transmissions will take place as scheduled on 13840kHz (with 20kW) fro the IRRS TX in Milan on Dec 27 and 28 between 0930-1030UTC.
Thanks to everyone who co-operated with the tests.
