29.12.2020 LW: RÚV Rás 1/RÚV Rás 2 (ISL) - 189 kHz
Uma estação emissora na Onda Longa que por vezes se capta de Noite em Portugal. Na verdade, são duas estações da rádio pública da Islândia (RÚV Rás 1/RÚV Rás 2) que emitem (em horários diferentes) na Onda Longa, utilizando 2 emissores. Neste caso, sintonizei a RÚV nos 189 kHz, através do emissor de Gufuskálar (Hellissandur), com 100 kW. Gravado às 23:17 UTC do dia 29.12.2020.

Ultralight DX Challenge: último dia /last day (18.12.2020)
Último dia do desafio - e desta vez acrescentei as estações que se costumam ouvir todos os dias. Contas feitas, consegui identificar, ao longo dos dias, 114 estações. Não era o número que tinha proposto, mas as condições de propagação nem sempre foram as melhores e não pude fazer observações todos os dias. Houve outras emissões que não consegui identificar e que por isso não constam dos registos de captações. De qualquer forma, esta experiência permitiu demonstrar que o XHDATA D-808 é um bom receptor para o preço, apresentando uma boa sensibilidade na Onda Média. Deixo o registo do dia de ontem (18.12.2020):
English abstract:
Last day of ultralight DX challenge. During the last mouth, I was able to identify 114 transmitters/stations. Not the number I expected, but propagation conditions weren't always the best - and I couldn't check the band every single day. Nevertheless, this experience proved that the XHDATA D-808 has good sensitivity on MW for its price.

Bandscan na Onda Média com o XHDATA D-808 / Medium wave bandscan using the XHDATA D-808
Porque importa distinguir o que se sintoniza na Onda Média durante o período diurno do que se escuta durante a noite, publiquei no MWLIST um "bandscan" realizado no meu QTH habitual para o desafio do Ultralight DX, utilizando o meu XHDATA D-808. A lista encontra-se disponível no endereço: https://www.mwlist.org/fi_bsall.php?omid=2167 .
