Tonight there will be a transmission test from a Norwegian offshore vessel. Interesting possibility to test your gear.
*******************************************
From the NDB list;
Offshore vessel Transocean Searcher V7DO3 has responded positively to do a DX test. The radio op. has not confirmed the schedule, but the request called for Friday Sept 11th at 2030 UTC. The vessel is at sea on the West Norway coast between Bergen Florø (= quite far south).
Older lists had this vessels beacon ident as LF5W and frq 598 kHz. Radio op now indicates 570 kHz, there might also have been a change of ident.
Requested transmission duration around ten minutes.
