These days I am very busy with our relocation. Our new home in Odoornerveen has been completed and we are moving in. So not a lot of time for the hobby. But thanks to Hugo Matten I was made aware of the “40 Watt DX-test” transmission of Kiss AM last weekend. Despite only using an improvised indoor loop antenna of 4x4x4 m on my trusted NTi Megaloop FX device I was able to identify two songs. The Kiss AM team confirmed it matched their schedule.
As you can see from the accompanying email, Kiss AM doesn’t have the optimal antenna either: “Two makes a pair!”
This is the first QSL for a reception of a station from my new location. With only 40 Watts, close to 900 kms distance of which a significant portion over land I’m pretty pleased with this one being the “ouverture” of my new DX-life!
