Monitor's Note:Little Noise,but weak QRM from Chinese amateurs? on the frequency.Great to hear on air VU2DBM(with ICOM IC 7300 & Delta Loop 4omb perhaps as external antenna) after a long break on air,extremely strong signal & had to use my manual AGC again i.e.volume control knob to move to lower the blasting audio level HI HI...such a blasting signal.It is also just for reminder that 7070kHz lsb is a frequency usually ham members of Amateur Radio Society Of Assam(ARSA) joins for rag chewing activities along with other hams of North Eastern India plus all other hams of Assam specially in the morning.And also hams from Eastern Indian region along with other parts of India plus from neighbouring countries viz Nepal and Bangladesh also joins here from time to time.
