Calypso

Post by Robin Banneville »

Hi Stubee,

The station you are hearing is Calypso from NE Netherlands. He's been on for a while 34434 hear in the Channel Isles ... Very few ID's, but I first heard him at 07.50 this morning.

Hope that helps
Best 73's ... Robin

Hi Iann ... You beat me to the reply ... Hi Hi. How strong is Calypso in France. And roughly where in France are you ?

Hi Iann,

TNX for the reply

I'm in Guernsey in the Channel Isles, just NW of France. Not too far away. I was getting Calypso S9+ in peaks. But sometimes only around s5-6. in fades.

Cheers ... Robin
