Today is the best DX day I have seen to date and if you are reading this then try scanning the channels as you may find something interesting. This morning is providing great DX conditions bringing in great pictures. This is DXing at its best.

Here a few examples of the great DXing I've done this morning.

This is from Sandy Heath (57 Miles from me)

These pictures are from Belmont (76 Miles from me)

This is from Oxford (53 miles away)

Finally, my most exciting find, Newsroom South East from Crystal Palace (96 miles away) Normally I don't receive ANY picture at all!

Good examples here, please remember though. These are pictures from EXCELLENT conditions, you don't get pictures like this all the time!

BTW, I'm in the Midlands. Nuneaton to be precise. Just updating at 9.25 and all the signals have gone back to normal Sad

The DXing spell is over.

You and your bloody whirling ariel Isonstine!! You make me so jealous! The best I can manage is Meridian on a good day - and technically I'm part of their region!

Hi James

Exceptionally impressive results! Please also put these on your web site!

Best wishes from a co-DXer rather slower off the mark with the captures!

I get Meridian with an outdoor ariel, Carlton/LWT with an indoor ariel and I have been known to get Anglia on occasion - I live near Dartford so that's probably why...

Comparing those 4 BBC Regions, Isn't Look North's side banner different from everyone elses!
Also Leeds seems to have the worst window view, everything is to small and far away

Anyone know this presenter's name? She looks incredibly like someone I met the other week in Oxford.

Oh, and none of those side banners are as good as North West Today's!

The NSE presenter's name is Lou James I think.
