5925 is already on air. Quite good reception in Central Germany.

Not even a hint of reception in Detroit, MI USA at 1000 UTC. There is an analogue station from China on this frequency. Will see if things get better as the morning goes on.

(In more optimistic news from the USA, Radio Luxembourg on 7295 is blasting in here at 1030 UTC!!!).

No luck here in Tucson either. Dream didn't record any data at all. :(

Bonne réception ici à Paris.
Il y a eu une coupure de l'éméteur entre 11h11 et 11h18.
Sur les graphiques ne pas tenir compte de la distance (1509 km) qui est fausse. La distance Paris à Wavre est d'environ 250 km.

Not sure if the transmission was really beamed to NA.
Anyway not too bad here, transmission lasted longer than had been announced.
