Winter solstic bandscan.
I took the radio outside around 2220Z. The weather was nearly calm with a few snowflakes and slight frost. As a result, I did not stay long outside, just long enough for a single run over each band.
First, the LW band. It felt like a half-abandoned block of flats with only three stations plus Allouis: Rás 1 on 189 kHz, BBC R4 on 198 kHz and the Polish on 225 kHz.
The MW band… a mixed bag. The British stations felt a bit anemic in signal strength while I was getting useable signals from Spain and Middle/Eastern Europe.
