List candidate AP-378 Mayne Island, BC...Can you hear it?

Here is the remaining information needed for this weekend's CLE 292. Please give it a try, especially if you have not entered before. MF conditions have been very good this week.

Hello all

Our 292^nd CLE starts at 12:00 UTC  this Friday (probably ‘today’ as you read this) and it ends at 12:00 UTC on Monday.

Big thanks to those of us who each chose 1, 2 or 3 ‘special’ NDBs for us all to try and log during the event.   Several of you also gave interesting reasons why they are special – something for the Coordinators’ Comments afterwards!

 As expected, we have ‘netted’ a final total of about 75 NDBs in all.

That’s not a lot, so, for THIS CLE ONLY, everyone is invited, wherever they are, to make ONE OR TWO SEPARATE LOGS – one log made in the ‘normal’ way (e.g. listening from home)  PLUS, if you wish, a separate log made vIa any kind of remote receiver (WebSDR, KIWI, etc.).

 (The full Final Details for the Event are repeated below)

 Here is your seeklist. 

The Radio Countries are in Alphabetical sequence, with the European ones flagged in yellow:

There might be some discussion on the List about good remote receivers to choose.

(If you have kept the Results from previous CLEs, you might be able to see where users have made good results with their chosen remotes.)

Here are the Final Details again, sent before we had the finished seeklist:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hello all,

This coming weekend's Coordinated Listening Event is a very special one!

For the first time, the NDBs that we shall be listening for have all been selected by NDB List members during this last week.

Nearly all the replies had the suggested maximum of three NDB choices, mostly fairly local ones that have a special significance for that listener.

There will be about 75 different NDBs in all for everyone to listen for (not just those who chose them!) 

YES – that sounds difficult for many of us, with most of the chosen NDBs in Western Europe and Western USA/Canada.

BUT  recognising that, Joachim and I have been busy in the last few days finding a way to increase the number of available NDBs for each of us to listen for.

So, for THIS CLE ONLY, we can invite listeners, wherever they are, to make one OR TWO SEPARATE LOGS – one log made in the ‘normal’ way (e.g. listening from home)  PLUS, if you wish, a separate log made via any kind of remote receiver (WebSDR, KIWI, etc.).

e.g. North American listeners could make a log as usual, PLUS a second listening via the Enschede WebSDR (University of Twente) in Holland.

(That supports hundreds of simultaneous listeners and is good on the NDB frequencies).

 As always, first-time CLE logs will also be very welcome, however modest.

 Days:       Friday 26^th May to Monday 29^th May

 Times:     Start and end at midday local time at the receiver.

 Targets:  The Nominated NDBs ONLY   The seeklist is to follow.

                     (the NDB nominations finish today at 16:00 UTC*)

     (QRG:    ALL NDB frequencies, 190 – 1740 kHz)

Send your final one CLE log, or 2 separate logs, to NDB List, preferably as plain text emails, not in an attachment, with CLE292 and FINAL at the start of their title.

Please show on EVERY LINE of your log(s):

 #   The full Date (or Day no.)  e.g. '2023-05-26' (or just '26') and UTC (the day changes at 00:00 UTC)

 #   kHz   (the beacon's nominal published frequency)

 #   The Call Ident.

Other optional details - Location, Distance, etc. - go LATER in the same line (or in footnotes).  

Please make your log useful to old and new members alike by ALWAYS including the receiver’s location, its 6-character Locator if you know it, and brief details of the receiver and aerial(s).

We will send an 'Any More Logs?' email at about 20:00 UTC on Tuesday evening so you can check that your log(s) have been found OK.

To be included in the combined results, all logs must arrive on NDB List by 09:00 UTC on Wednesday 31^st May at the very latest.

We hope to complete making the Combined Results within a few days.

Good listening

Brian and Joachim
