- A rare, likely double hop E-Skip reception of 89.7 WRTU San Juan, PR occurred on June 16th, 2021. From my current location in Mashpee, Massachusetts, WRTU is 1,636 miles.
Two additional suspected stations were observed on 88.1 and 90.5 during this reception (signals can be seen in the video) but neither had an immediate positive identification.
Splendid E-Skip double hop catch towards San Juan :) Thanks for sharing 73!
You're finally back!
Nice catch
Are you the same DX'er in Mashpee that is loading his FM signal data to Rabbitears? What type of antenna you using and how high up are you? Saw all the catches you had yesterday. Outstanding. ~KG4EFQ Richard in Dallas, GA
Hi Richard, that's me! This is a great DX location and the RabbitEars setup is normally pair of omnidirectional loops in a stack. However, yesterday I did hook it up to a 10 element Innovantenna beam at about 15' AGL.
Hope you enjoyed some of the opening from your side as well down in Georgia.
Yowzah...RDS to 🥾 boot!
Nice double-hop E-skip, Bryce! Do you got more E-skips today?
Nope, yesterday and today were quiet for Es aside from this one fadeup to PR
@@dxbryce Do you AM DX?
@@AMDXplusplus Not much. Hoping to do a little bit this fall/winter though!
@@dxbryce Try to get 99.9 KTQM from Clovis, New Mexico. I got it with minimal to no fading, it locks in stereo during the fade. Its about 1040 miles away from me.
