Well, the other day I was having a look around my DX signals and noticed a REALLY good signal that day from Belmont (76 miles from my house) and luckily I managed to captures a few pictures to prove the event!

Here is just an image, the Look North logo:

The red and green lines are interference from my video, the actual signal was crystal clear.
Just thought I would show you all what can be achieved!

5th time lucky! IT WORKS!

I have got a video recording of the good day somwhere, I'll have to dig it out and encode it, I think I also recorded a Yorkshire ident as well.

Sadly, I went to look at my video of Newsroom South East (from Crystal Palace - 96 Miles away) and its been recorded over! ARGH!!!!
I can't receive it very well but over a couple of days a few weeks ago, different signals came in perfectly.

Why does your name say bye for now?
and also, you can get rid of the (edited by...) by pressing delete after finding it. Then ther'll be only one Edited by... thing.
But you probably knew that.

Yeah, I knew that but I forgot. I will do it immediately if not sooner!

As to the sig, I am slowly turning in to Huw Edwards.

Thanks for that.

Hi, Isonstine, I am going to ask you a silly question now, what is DX reception and what type of equipment do you need to receive a DX reception?, it all sounds interesting!
