1566 kHz HLAZ FEBC- Cheju Korea 21.9.2012

Strong signals tonight from Korea - received on the K9AY antenna NE-SW.

Another Sporadic (late season) ES opening

Today was more like a mid-season TV Band I and OIRT Es opening. Several hours with persistent DX, with some very strong signals from Ukraine. More like this please! Mediumwave TA-DX can wait !!

Beside the strong R1 - TV Channels from Ukraine ( 1+1 and Inter ) this was seen

R1 - 2Plus from Moldova with the old TVR1 logo upper right corner

R2 - M1 from Moldova

R2 - UT-1 from Ukraine

Between the channel R2 powerhouses I could log a personal first from Ukraine called STB/5-y-Kanal which is a low power station from Sinelnikove.
