Not real sure of what you heard there but this is also done in the US.
There is one in FL that can be heard 1000 miles to the north when conditions
are good.  Actually there are a number of them here in the US.  Also there
are one or two from Brazil we can hear up in the N. E. part of the US.

Subject: [HCDX]: several


While testing the performance of the new IC-R75 when listening with it in
the
FM mode, around 27 MHz today at 0900 UT I came across several strange
feeders
carrying live religious broadcasts (catholic?). Most were in English, others
in seemingly ?Dutch. Channels included 26975, 27065, 27205, 27275, 27295,
27335, 27375, 27395 kHz FM. I also checked them on an AR7030, so it is
unlikely that these were just mixing products. At the same time I also found
some strong SSB signals coming from CBers in the U.K. and Ireland. Nothing
from the U.S. So, these feeders might have come from the U.K. region.
Anybody
out there with background information?

Remember Radio Voix Sans Frontières broadcasting on shortwave March 20-21?
Today I received an informative card which might count as a non-detailed
QSL.
All their shortwave frequencies are listed on it. I am not sure whether I
received this as a member of AMARC or for my eMail I have sent them after
listening to the station. Anyway, in case you wanna try to get this kind of
a
QSL, send them a report to: europe@xxxxxxxxx

Not bc, but may be interesting for some of us: For celebrating its 90th
anniversary, the FBI operated a special event station under the call of
K3FBI. Today I received a splendit A4 certificate and a colourful QSL card
showing current and former FBI communications facilities. Already a while
ago
I received a QSL from a special event amateur radio station operated by the
CIA. Interestingly, that card also showed some of these famous numbers
groups
printed on it. So, sometimes you can catch quite interesting signals on the
ham bands even if you normaly are not into SWLing. I wish our own BND would
QSL too ;-)

I am trying to find a current web site or eMail address for contacting the
publisher of the famous South American Handbook (Trade & Travel
Publications,
Bath) in the U.K. Is anybody out there who can give a hint? Directly to my
eMail address, please.

tnx vy73
