          african male talk; mention of RTL wich is the most popular french radio.
Fair-good
          reception, over WFEA-1370/CKLC-1380 slop. This is country nr. 11 for me (!)
and my
          first foreign DX log of the 2001-2002 DX season.

 The last 2 nights featured excellent high-latitude conditions toward the Canadian
maritimes
 provinces, with some Latin Americans sneaking throught occassionally as well. The
high-light
 of the past night was undoubtely St.-Pierre and Miquelon. I hope to been able to
re-log them
 soon ! I hope also to been able to get some "true" trans-atlantics.

73s,
Bogdan
