[HCDX]: MW DXped in Bahia, Brazil
Hi everybody,
what follows is the outcome of my first MW dx-ped, since I moved to
Brazil. The location was a small island called Tinhare, 40 km off
Salvador da Bahia, a wonderful place on the Atlantic Ocean for both
vacation and dxing (www.morrodesaopaulo.com.br). I took with me a 7030
and, unfortunately, just a 80mt wire I used alternatively N-S and E-W,
layed on the ground in a palmtree plantation not far from the beach.
The experience was exciting, with lots of signals for hours from
Africa, Middle East, Europe and USA. I have no idea what "normality"
means here, nor I have knowledge of similar efforts in this area. Local
QRM is intense, but affordable compared to Rio de Janeiro or Italy. Mw
dxing on this side of the Atlantic is relatively easier, but it?s fun,
anyway. Best time seems to be local sunset, for ME and Africa, and 22-00
for Europe.
Highlights for me were the Ascension Islands on 1602 (must be at
least a few kw, now), a possible Angolan on 1485 and the new Tanzanian
on 1377. Moreover I have a African unid on 1062, probably Nigeria, just
as guys in Newfoundland, and a few nice US x-bander. I also loved the
Radio Vitoria, Spain, local id on 1602, and my homeland Rai Rome on 846?
Bye, Rocco
