There was nothing or hardly anything to be heard on the other wires. Possibly LRA36 came over the longpath, which corresponds to a distance of more than 26,000 km.

LOG: 560 kHz, NCN Voice of Guyana
Guyana is a small country on the northern flank of South America, on the Atlantic Ocean. The studios are located near the city of Georgetown, in Vreed en Hoop, at the mouth of the Demerara River. NCN runs three government controlled radio services: Fresh 100.1 FM, Voice of Guyana 560 AM and an 102.1 FM, and Hot FM, 98.1 FM.
On September 26, 2020, the BBC Worldservice was broadcast between 0500z and 0530z via VoG. IDs were heard at the beginning and end of the period.
A Screenshot from SDR Console V.3.0.23. To the left on 558 kHz is RNE from Spain which dominantes the frequency, and most of the time the area around. So, Guyana was a good catch on this September morning. The station was audible up from 0400z first under heavy QRM from Spain .
Antenna was the 78 m Double Delta Loop pointing 325°. Receiver ELAD FDM-S2. And booster RPA-2 from DX-Engineering.

QSL: Voice of Maldives 1449 kHz
On 5.1.2020 at 0059z I was able to receive the new 25 KW transmitter of the Voice of Maldives at 1449 kHz. This frequency is mainly dominated by the BBC in Aberdeen. During a break in the program change from BBC Radio 4 to BBC Worldservice I could clearly hear the ID "The Voice of Maldives, welcome". My reception report was promptly rewarded with an e-QSL after 12 hours.
The Voice of Maldives has not been active on this frequency for a long time. The new medium-wave transmitter went into operation at the end of December 2019.
For those who think you would need long antennas for this reception: it was possible with an ALA 1530S + Imperium @home QTH, in the city center and far outside of my garden reception station.

LOG: 5AN Adelaide
On 24.10.2018 at 1624z I managed the reception of 5AN, ABC Adelaide on the frequency 891 kHz. The weak signal could only be identified with the help of the webstream. The 50 kW transmitter from the state of South Australia is my first Pacific broadcast on medium wave.

Welcome to my dxers'corner
If you have any complaints about running a remote station read this blog
"My dxers'corner is in the garden paradise where the noise is low and the antennas could be great for listening. The remote garden project was started in May 2016 and the blog tells what's developing on the remote site. It is still under construction".
In 2019, the site is fully entertained with solar power, there is unlimited WiFi, a fully equipped Shack with accommodation, and a DXer, who is looking forward to almost trouble-free reception.
