Geomagnetic Batavier

[WireUK]

With aurora already being sighted from Scotland at this time and solar activity forecast to get worse I was surprised to hear Batavier here in NW England tonight.

At 21:34 he was received on 1640 with SINPO 24322
Batavier can be heard 'wildly propagating the Geomagnetic Ionosphere'

OK guys, I got it wrong ....and Wadloper was on chat at the time too

I listened to Wadloper at the same time as UKDxer logged him on another thread since I mentioned Pink Floyd and their record 'Another Brick In The Wall' on Chat.

The recording is S1 at the start with voices audible but not understood rising to an S2 (and still not understood by me ! ) Is he talking about 'Batavier' or simply refering to the 'pier' , I'll never know but what I do know is that radio conditions were terrible due to the solar activity.


Thanks for the feedback

he says "from the point of the peer"
