Hot Spot - North Korea
Kim is at it again. I think he has taken "the rocket's red glare" to new heights with his seven missile launches.
And contrary to what some have posted in the last 24 hours, you won't directly hear how our US military is responding to these multiple missile launches from North Korea on any DoD HF or military satellite frequencies. But you can listen to English language broadcasts directly from Pyongyang via shortwave radio.
Ms Gayle, my better half, posted this morning on her blog the latest English language broadcast frequencies from Pyongyang. You can view those freqs on her super spot on the web, the best place for shortwave broadcast info, the MT Shortwave Central Blog. But hey, I am partial and I like to eat.
But in order for monitors here on the east coast to hear Pyongyang, their signal travels to us via the great circle path over a near polar path. Given the current prop conditions from the N3KL prop monitor on her blog page as I type this (geomagnetic field is at storm levels),we do NOT have good conditions from North Korea right now.
More as we get it and be sure to stop by the MT-Shortwave Central for the latest SWBC freqs for this event and the Israeli-Palestine situation.
