Hi there, thanks again to Graham, aka Radio Cruncher for sorting out my beloved ICF-SW55. Here are some daylight-hour longwave signals from Romania, Morocco, Algeria and Poland on the Sony, which just makes me feel good, lol.

Recorded on 06/02/2026 at 15:54 hrs UTC using a Wellbrook ALA1530 magnetic loop antnena (outdoors) via a Bonito/NTi AntennaJet RF splitter.

Thanks for watching and 73.
