- Despite being designed for FM DX, my new 5-element LFA Yagi never ceases to amaze me with its shortwave reception, especially on the upper bands!
This Saturday afternoon, August 17th, 2024, I was surprised to hear WWVH all the way from Hawaii, on 15 MHz. This station is rarely heard in Europe and typically requires a large antenna.
This time, it looks like height is enough, as the Yagi is about 6m above ground.
I also heard WWV at the same time, with its own tones, but not announcements. Its signal was weaker. WWVH's female time announcements were readable, however. In addition, at 7:22, you can hear usual propagation information, including some R1 radio blackouts. You'll need headphones to decipher what she's saying though.
Received at 12:37 UTC Aug 17th, 2024 in NE Poland using SDRPlay RSP1 & 5-el Vertically-polarised LFA Yagi for FM band.
Really great catch especially for summer daytime.
Thank you so much 😃
