Emergency Pod: Bryce logs France on FM!
Manage episode 365330941 series 3481981
We said we'd come back with an episode sooner in July if conditions warranted, and did they ever warrant it for a certain podcast host. Nick and Bryce reconvene to relive Bryce's E-Skip reception of Radio France, from Angoulême, France, at 87.8 FM MHz., on the morning of July 5. This is the first known reception of mainland Europe from continental North America, an amazing milestone! On the emergency edition of the pod, we discuss:
- The events leading up to the Radio France reception for Bryce on the morning of July 5
- Larry Horlick's phenomenal FM DX exploits from Newfoundland, including E-Skip receptions of Algeria and Morocco
- An active period for North American domestic single-hop E-Skip, including an all-day opening on June 27
