The highlights of Season 2013-2014
The MW season 2013-2014 “officially” ended last week. I collected some highlights what I heard between August 2013 and May 2014. I recorded MW band almost every night. I only lost maybe 4 or 5 nights becuase of techinical problems (unfortunately missed few good openings too!).
British Isles
Happy to get some new ones: BBC Radio Cornwall 630, BBC Radio Jersey 1026 and Flame CCR 1521 even without antenna to UK direction!
