You can have strong or you can have colour and audio but you can't have both. I was going to edit this down but then thought nah, leave it in all its glory for something to look back at in years to come :) Here it is, 5 mins of glorious colour PM5544 testcard via sporadic E from the Gagnheiši transmitter on E4.

First I thought this was Belarus because of the logo, then I thought it was ?????? ????? Russia from the voice ID at the end but maybe Belarus State TV calls itself the first channel as well? An exceptional signal for R1 either way!

ORF1 and HRT on E4 ORF1 and HRT on E4
Posted by: AceBlaggard

Video duration: 44 seconds

Recorded during some very intense Es in EU, ORF was thought to be off air on Band 1 but this proves otherwise. The highest power transmitter listed on E4 is Neumarkt-Kulmer Alpe with 1W ERP. No audio on this one but part 2 has the German soundtrack.

There's little here to see, in fact the audio isn't much better but it's the best it's been this year. I need more aluminium and more forward gain!! In fact there's so little on this clip it's probably not worth watching, you've been warned!

Video duration: 79 seconds

Another video from Iran, this time there's no audio due to endstop Italians but the video strength makes up for that. Towards the end can be seen TLA below E2 and mixing with it the unmodulated carrier from the UNID on 46MHz.

This was on 0 offset during a good opening to Ukraine across B1 at 1011UTC, there are logos top left and right but neither are very clear. Any help with the station ID would be great, I think it maybe 1TV Russia.

Video duration: 60 seconds

Nova TV from Czech Republic. This is recorded off R1, the signal passes through a notch filter with a depth of 45dB at 49.86MHz, as you can see it was quite strong! Not sure where the audio is coming from but it's not Nova.

The Italian private station on 46.2Mhz. I suspect this to be from Monte Faito in Napoli and has replaced TV Luna which in turn replaced the long gone but still occasionally listed TeleA.

Video duration: 33 seconds

This was recorded during an Es opening to the east and if it is Denmark it's probably the first time I've seen it. No audio channel but the latter half of the soundtrack is the carrier with the 8500 tuned to 55.051MHz

One of the few remaining stations to air a testcard, this being the Phillips 5544. This is the Gagnheiši transmitter on 0 offset, just a shame there was no colour or audio during this reception.

Jordanian TV and e21 Italy on E3 Jordanian TV and e21 Italy on E3
Posted by: AceBlaggard

Video duration: 115 seconds

A mix of the news on Jordanian TV and basketball and adverts from the e21 Network from Northern Italy. Frustrating because I didn't capture JTV when it was the dominant signal but interesting as these are first and second short hop Es during a strong opening. The Arabic audio was the only one present throughout the opening.
