[ACARS] REPLY:- FRA squitter in Almere (NL)

[scanner]

Hi
I will try for you
there are currently loads of complaints on the short wave lists
of lack of activity,this is being caused by the aurora

the upside is the VHF signals will be greatly enhanced
commonly known as lift by the ham radio guys

vhf signals will fly much further on the ground wave

Having said that yours is a real jump

you may well find that if you tune your vfh home radio
you may here stations you havent heard before also

another is if your scanner covers it
listen to 145.200 FM

you will hear the ham guys looking for long distance contacts

the uk guys will be talking well into germany
with the correct antenna when the ground wave is really getting
lifted

You could also try brussels approach and copenhagen app.
never know what you might hear and also EDDL and EDDK

cheers for now
