Reflections about a remote shortwave listeners station

Frozen are not only the K9AY but also my DX activities at the remote site. The tablet is in "repair". In my home QTH, I relocated the ALA 1530+ to a better location outdoors. The rotatable antenna is now located on a window projection in about 8 m height. If the disturbances are absent, you can also go modestly on wave hunting.

My remote site is located in a gardening area near the city of Giessen. In a summer night everything is available, what one needs for DXing, even if the conditions are not so good. There is always a lot to do during daytime. In a warm summer night you can hear the crickets chirping. This is the background for this picture.

An exception was on Aug 14, 2016, when R Bata from Guinea Equatorial was on the air on 5005.040 kc and audible for around an hour up to 2115 UT. It was a music program broadcast and only a few announcements were heard. The recording comes with the station identification.
