Three TX breaks at around 1932 UTC, Michel's email address is wrong.

I came home at lunch and by chance found this signal while restarting my PC after a crash.

SNR at 1925 was 19.5dB, and remained at that level for the next 15 minutes. Several short transmitter breaks during that time as well, lasting only about 1-2 seconds each time.

No chance to get a log, sorry!

When I found out that there was a DRM transmission on 17650 kHz, I checked and only found an analog signal.

The mono sound quality was quite good, zipped mp3 attached:

[stef]

Weak and no audio decoded other configuration than yesterday.

[FritzWue]

Today better result at lower bitrate here.
Compared to yesterday there was about twice as much decoded audio.
The label said English, but to me it sounded like Portuguese.

17650 for 5 Oct

Very nice today, very steady. Only some very minor dropouts in the last hour kept it from being perfect. Very good propagation for the path from Montsinery today.

Here is this afternoon's reception report from 19:01 to 19:59 divided into two logs due to computer Windoze problems.

TDF Montsinery special broadcast to Mexico 17650 kHz

This is the reception report for 22:01 to 22:58. Looks like the propagation was not too good to Atlanta.

I enjoyed seeing the multi-media, and have attached one of the received slides as the 2nd attachment.

TDF Montsinery special broadcast to Mexico 12110 kHz

This evening's 12110 kHz reception report.

The signal pretty much disappeared after 00:58 UTC. This agrees with my predicted VOACAP signal footprint plot (assuming that TDF was beaming to Mexico City) as shown in the 2nd attachment.
