Vanuatu su 5055 kHz


L'altra sera, 13 Marzo, intorno alle 19 UTC arrivava su 5054,96 kHz Vanuatu BTC. Il segnale era debolissimo ma ha avuto un picco (si fa per dire) tra le 1850 e le 1915.

Più tardi ho notato ottimi segnali dall'Australia su 4835, 4910 e 5025 kHz. Niente invece né prima, né durante, né dopo sui 5020 kHz.
