Logs, April 20, 22 & 28 and QSLs from MRI and Dr. Tim

It has been an interesting week here on "the rock".  We had a "snow day" last Wednesday (49 cm), but it was almost all gone by Sunday.  Yesterday saw another 20 cm, which is almost gone today.  In Newfoundland, spring is often just a date on the calender.

Here are some logs from the last week:

I also received a few QSLs this week.  First is Marconi Radio International, who sent me 3 QSLs.  Since they are all the same design, here is the first:


Nice that I was able to be their first report from outside Europe (SDRs not included).  Thanks MRI.

As well, MRI sent the following info:
"As from 3 May 2016 MRI will start a regular service  on Wednesdays, from 1800 to 1900 UTC, from 2000 to 2100 UTC, from 2200 to 2300 UTC on 7690 kHz USB mode  (alternative frequencies: 7700 and 7790 kHz) with a power of 100 watts. Additional broadcasts may also be aired during week-end."

I also received this great QSL from Dr. Tim:


Thanks Doc.
