I seem to be hearing “Vision Australia Radio Melbourne” on 1053 am, but sounds far too weak to be from Melbourne (I am in Melbourne) And what’s stranger is that I only ever hear 2CA on that frequency. I thought Vision Australia Melbourne is on 1179 am? I’m thinking it could be Brisbane?
1053 Brisbane is SEN.
Thanks, Well i’m stuffed if I know what it is, only stations that seem to be licenced on the ACMA map that I could find is 2CA, ABC SA and some other SA station. I couldn’t see Brisbane on the map.
As far as I know, 1053 = Brisbane. nice car stereo BTW 
Thanks, its a good stereo, it does Shortwave as well as DAB, FM and MW.
my 1st FM Skip for the summer - noted brief music on 87.6 (on the XHDATA) at around 13:00. Also of note - the stereo FM pilot is back on 100.9 / 95.3 RN.
Been getting what sounds like ABC Radio National on 92.5 popping up briefly a couple of times in mono, over Music FM. Seams like SpE. Can’t find other activity on other frequencies so far.
Sydney ionosonde showing weak Es past couple of hours.
nice opening to Central / North QLD when I got home around 11am. FM from Emerald, Mackay & Townsville amongst other stuff. Heard a community FM on 99.5 which I mis-heard the ID also had weather forecast. Any ideas? possible it was Rebel FM.
Star FM 101.9 Mackay nice w/ RDS.
DXing out the front on my XHDATA portable
Rebel is a commercial station. No community stn up that way per ACMA list. 4 Qld commercl candidates on 99.5 though. Triple M, Breeze & 4AK
Hobart into Brisbane atm.
Update: Also Nouvelle Caledonie
Update: Tasmania included Hobart 93.9 ABC 92.9 JJJ plus Hit 100.9. Also ABCFM 93.3 Nth Tas, RN Rosebery 107.9, Lileah 91.3. Also low level signal that was probably Melbourne 89.9
New Cal included 89.0, 90.0, 91.5, 93.0, 102.5 and 103.0. RDS
5AD Mix 102.3 Adelaide now occasionally above the noise.
Today I received a station that I could not Identify. It’s probably an ABC Outlet judging by the tone of the content.
we’d need to know your location, what other stations were coming in at the time - that would help. If you’re in QLD for eg, it could have been Omeo VIC 99.7
The announcer is James Valentine from ABC Sydney (ABC Local Radio (Metro)). He normally is scheduled between something like 12.30 - 4pm M-F, although I heard him sign off recently at 3.30pm.
With ABC local radio in summer break broadcast schedule mode it is possible he is being broadcasted out to NSW or maybe to other states. But he’s always attached to ABC Local Radio.
Hope that helps a bit…
I was in the NSW Southern Highlands in a park when that was recorded
There is an ABCRR station at Corryong across the border in Victoria on 99.7.
yeah, I meant Corryong - I said Omeo in my post - I had Omeo on the brain…
FM SpE finally arriving in Sydney. So far only 94.3 which I believe is 4PNN Townsville - very fleeting reception.
A bit of instability about tonight. Signals fading up and down quite a bit including Sydney and Wollongong as well as South Coast ABCs such as 2BA 103.5 Batemans Bay.
Unusually quiet FM DX over here on the West Coast so far this summer but nice sporadic E to SA today. This mornings log from Bunbury WA, heard 830 to 930 WST.

Strongest where ABCFM 103.9 and Triple M 104.7 Adelaide - full RDS decode. Both towering over local Bunbury community radio 103.7 on the spectrum waterfall. All short lasting though.
