Great views this morning. Looking out from Inishowen Head, Co. Donegal. Taking in Co. Derry, Co. Antrim, Rathlin Island with Scotland behind it and sweeping round to the Scottish islands of Islay and Jura and then back to Inishowen again.

I almost forgot about my promise—here’s what the MW spectrum looks like at my QTH. On a regular radio, these harmonics aren’t audible, but it also doesn’t let me hear what else is out there, outside the country. The MLA antenna is the best at regulating signal strength; other antennas overload the AirSpy HF As I headed further out of Asunción, I was able to pick up a few stations from Argentina and one from Uruguay, but that was it. Nothing from the other countries in the region. The government agency that regulates telecommunications here says that the bandwidth for MW stations is up to 10 kHz, but several of them actually reach 20 kHz. That bandwidth saturates any other signal that might be nearby. The image in the tweet is a summary of that.

horses always clopping. just walk normally. fucking idiots.
