The Rainbow Captured By MK
Its my pleasure to share these photographs of The Rainbow captured by my friend Mohan Kumar(MK) at Abhayapuri on a September afternoon. He was the lucky person to be in right place at the right moment to capture via his smart phone such a wonderful scene of nature that day...
Thanks Mohan Kumar to share these photographs with me.And I could not resist to share these photographs with all of you with his permission.
With Best Wishes

A19 First Week Monitoring Special
Here is my first monitoring report on A19 season beginning March 31,2019.
Due to very bad weather condition i.e.thunders,lightning,storms etc and electric power disruption plus regular power cuts due to regular maintenance works of power company & road construction projects I could not monitor the A19 frequencies of different radio stations as such and also post my monitoring observations etc.
Here is a few radio monitoring observations I made on April 3rd.
RX:Grundig Yacht Boy 400
ANT:78 Feet Length 30 Feet Height Cu Wire coax lead in
Geographical Location of Reception Place(Abhayapuri):
Longitude:26º18´20´´North
Latitude:90º37´50´´East
Date:April 03,2019
BBC World Service English
I got encouraging signals of BBCWS English in the afternoon to early evening on various frequencies.
Here is a brief summary.
1030utc 11945kHz (via Kranji,Singapore)
Good Signal
News etc
Here is the link to the audio recorded:
