It is Hrvatska Radio, located at Zadar, Croatia. Hrvatska means
Croatia; one of the independent states of the former Yugoslavia. The
transmitter is located near 44°06'N, 15°15'E.

Here in north central Oklahoma the signal seems to be best between
0130 and 0300 UTC. Last night it was penetrating through KMOX's HD
(IBOC) signal with a good strength as heard on an E100. Not bad for a
distance of approximately 8791 km. / 5462 miles.

--- What country is on 1134 that you logged in this logging ?I do not
have my WRTH handy.It might be in storage while we are waiting to get
into our new home.If you heard it there,i should be able to hear it
here in Tennessee on my E-100.

First I want to thank you all the help you've provided.

Until last evening I would never have thought I could anything

though

the KMOX HD noise. But I tuned to 1134 at 0202 UTC and there was a
man speaking in an eastern European language. You can't image my
surprise. I immediately switched on the recorder. The signal was
heard fading in and out of the IBOC hiss until I finally quit
listening at 0312. It was all heard on a barefoot, factory aligned
Etón E100. It seems to handle the sideband trash better than the

more

sensitive SRF-T615.

Around sunset until about 0130 UTC, I continue to hear a het on

1521.

You can't imagine how much I've learned about University of

Oklahoma

sports from KOKC 1520 hoping to hear some audio.

I did tune to 1575 last evening but old time pest XERF was too

strong.

I had a possibility on 774 kHZ but my eyelids crashed.

Because the E100 was tuned to 774 I heard JOUB right after I awoke
this morning with possibly the best signal ever. It was 100% copy

at

1151 until 1152:30 UTC when it faded away. There was no QRM from

WBBM

and local KSPI was off. At 1157 I heard a woman talking in

Japanese

on 747 kHz briefly. Then it seemed like someone pulled the curtain
shut around 1200 for nothing was heard afterward. The het on 972

kHz

I've been monitoring the last few mornings wasn't audible.

Although

conditions appeared to have deteriorated, I could still hear CBW

990

and CJGX 940 without any trouble.

Again thanks Mark and John. John I'm planning for a new house, so
maybe I'll need the "wallpaper"! Guys if I can hear them, you can.

Congratulations Richard on the TA from Oklahoma. I think you

will

bag

some more especially Canaries-621, Spain-585/684/774, France-
1206/1377/1557, Algeria-891, Saudi-1521, and maybe some others.

UAE on 1575 has been getting heard all over the place including

the

West Coast. Might be worth a try.

Thank for the tip John. I logged Croatia 1134 kHz a few minutes ago
at 0202 UTC on a barefoot, stock E100. The signal is good strength

at

times. Sadly, here there is severe IBOC QRM I assume from KMOX 1120.

Had a strong heterodyne on 1521 kHz at 0017-0055 UTC.

Greetings,

WAY TO GO RICHARD! What a neat breakthrough, especially for an okie!
Now I think everyone will see why I don't mind riding the coat-tails of
my semi-local neighbor to the south. I'm speechless here.
