I turned the radio on at 2341Z 13 Oct 96 not expecting much. Tuned
down from 1835 kHz and heard nothing. Tuned up to 1837 and heard a
strong station ("must be a local"). Then I heard an ID: SV2BOH!
Time to turn the amp on! He peaked in strength at 2344Z (589!)
(2351Z sunset). When I worked him at 2349 he was down to 569.
He must have left around 0000 as I didn't hear him or callers after that.
I heard the east coast call G3SED around the same time, but didn't
hear Mike's normally strong signal. Must be 160 ducting(?)!
