  1. It's a pity that the 145.5375 MHz repeater (tone 77) in Jbel Foughal, northeastern Morocco (IM84vt), can be easily excited when there's some #tropo, but it feeds back to itself, probably due to a malfunction of its cavities. This repeater has worked wonders for me in the past. It is is 422 km SES from me (i'm in IM98ri).

  6. Whilst driving to work heard earlier #RDS automatic #traffic news announcement - except it mentioned amongst other things "file op de A13" - which as I was concentrating on #driving I misheard as A14, then wondered "why is this announcement in Dutch anyway? I wasn't headed to Rotterdam either"

    (I often get a BBC #Radio Suffolk TA around this time so was expecting that)

    ofc I was getting this news from #NPO Radio 1 - there really must be strong #tropo or #Sporadic_E today for a whole RDS signal + traffic announcement to cross over from #Goes and end up this side of the North Sea..

  11. Recién fui a llevar al guri a la gimnasia y la 90.3 FM Hit se mezclaba con otra estación. Supuse que sería alguna estacion argentina entrando por tropoducting y cuando volví me fijé y zaz. dicho y hecho. Atento radioescuchas, hay terrible tropo para escuchar estaciones argentinas y buenos DX #radio #hamradio #tropoducting #tropo #fm #fmdxing #dxinf

  21. RE: mastodon.radio/@vu3dxr/1164773

    Even if you don't have your ham licence, you can still use #Tropo to listen to VHF/FM #radio stations many hundreds of km away from your location (this weekend I heard many from Netherlands, Germany and even a community station from Northern England (330 km away from me!)

  31. Well that was an absolute blast. Played radio with @DafyddJack from some high ground in north east Wales this afternoon. Worked Germany (multiple times), The Netherlands and France on #2m #SSB, 30-50w TX power and a 3 element SOTAbeam.
    Before today neither of us had worked mainland Europe on 2m. #AmateurRadio #HamRadio #vhf #vhfdx #dx #tropo

  36. Last night (20250526 0951Z) on 2m I could reach the Sicilian repeater IR9D at Monte Erice (145.775 MHz, tone 94.8) locator JM68ha) 1150 km away from me (IM98ri). I was using 50 W. I had a very nice QSO with Adriano IT9HMH who was on mobile near Trapani. I love Mediterranean tropospheric ducting.

  41. Radio Propagation

    As an area of high pressure is moving back into northern Europe and the British Isles this weekend, an associated area of "weak" to "good" tropospheric radio propagation tries to push in too. Enhanced radio conditions may reduce by the end of the weekend, although they may improve again later in the week.

    Enhanced tropospheric radio conditions extend the normal range of VHF and higher signals beyond their normal range.

    Lot activity on the 2m band is being reported across southern and eastern Scandinavia tonight which is reported as Tropo propagation. I'm not seeing any matching tropo reports on fmlist.org, nor a forecast for topo propagation on F5LEN tonight, so this might be contest activity. Could someone in the area confirm?

  56. Yesterday I drove to the rural area to visit relatives from Christmas (a good 30km inland from the North Sea coast).

    Both on the outward and return journey I heard #FranceInfo loud and clear on 105,2 MHz VHF/FM, including a #weather report from #MéteoFrance where the reporter mentioned unusual levels of humidity for the season ( which was likely the cause of all this #Tropo and linked to #ClimateChange )
