Heard in Fredriksfors Jan 21 - 24 - Two hours from Brazil rejoyed

January 21st. continued with an “empty band” band, while the solar disturbance continued at full strength. Not a transatlantic, as far as I could see, not even a carrier for all night. I tried with the battered 255-degree, which is off and ungrounded and largely beaten to the ground. It gave no results.

22nd and a lot of Brazilian stations! Especially at 22 – 23, that is “A Voz do Brasil time”. Some “suspected” La Plata later, but far too weak strengths on them. Overall much better than in a long time.

23rd. there were maybe ten LA from Harbour Light in the north to Rosario (Radio Dos) in the south. All had one thing in common that they were far too weak to even make an effort. The only station with a really readable signal was Eritrea just before 03 on 840.

On 24th. I had switched back to 285 degrees, which is the least damaged of our antennas, and the solar interference had subsided. But it got even worse, if possible. At 02 some very weak carriers began to appear. At 05 and towards sunrise you could possibly sense some sound also from some of the carriers. But far too weak to be able to decipher, at the same time as the noise also became increasingly loud,
