Listen Later

How is it the second half of August already? Bryce and Nick reconvene virtually to put a proverbial bow on the 2023 Sporadic-E proceedings, that left many DX'ers wanting more. Inside this discussion-packed episode, the duo covered:

  • Grades for the 2023 E-Skip season. Did July 30 save the season in the Eastern US?
  • A particularly paltry July for E-Skip in Europe.
  • Highlights including Bryce's July 20 Venezuela special, and 2x Es from Washington to Southeast Texas.
  • Recapping the Perseids Meteor Shower, with Nick's autologger setup, and good results from Andrew K. in Ohio and mobile in Utah.
  • What's troubling DX'ers? We cover sources of pain, including RF Noise, IBOC power increases, and the upcoming new LPFM window.
  • Possibly fictitious listener questions
  • The SDRConnect preview software release
  • A look ahead to #TropoSZN

    • A few relevant links discussed on this episode, including:
