The 48 / 42 metre bands closed to short and medium skip early tonight, around 1745 UTC at my location. The normally reliable signal path between myself and GSV / WMR had closed by this time. No Dutch stations were being heard at the Twente SDR and only GSV was audible from the UK on this receiver. This will repeat and get earlier as we move towards the winter solstice. Hopefully the number of daytime broadcasts will increase, particularly at the weekend.

and, then....
6925 @ 1855 Mustang - 45544; from Nederland; pop music and techno / dance style music. Much weaker by 1912.
