This is from 6SE Esperance, Western Australia, 600 miles away. Esperance is a small town on the coast, about 400 miles east of Perth. As can be seen, we are on the same latitude. We've heard many WA stations here over the years and most have verified our reports. Rod Ashworth at the station kindly QSLd and sent this pic of the station antenna. They put out 5 kW from there and broadcast on the Radio West network. Although the stations are in sync, they do have individual station IDs, with the frequency, as you can hear in the attached clip, followed by a snippet of John Cougar Mellencamp's "Hurts So Good." Current posts on this blog are QSLs (verifications from radio stations) and, often, audio of their station identifications, from around the world. These are mostly stations heard on medium-wave (AM) over long distances, often from Cape Point, south of Cape Town, with my friend, Vashek Korinek. But also included are other QSLs received over a 50-year participation in the hobby, with comments about the station, the area, the politics or the economics.
