Gaweylon Tibetan Radio always plays beautiful music from Tibet and has one of the most beautiful QSL letters of any shortwave station. Many thanks to Anil R. Alfred for the confirmation.

Australia.
At the beginning of January 2026, I was able to hear ABC News Radio, 6PB from Busselton, on the now free frequency 1152 kHz in Salzburg. To my surprise, the signal was not only audible for minutes, but Jaguar’s good spectrum image is of course a great help with such weak signals. Graham Himmelhoch-Mutton, ABC Master Control Radio, very kindly confirmed reception, my third QSL from an Australian ABC station that I was able to receive in Salzburg.
“New” AziLoop.
Work on the “new” AziLoop antenna continues. The clamps to hold the individual elements of the now much more stable Spiderbeam mast are ready.
“New” AziLoop.
The new solid Spiderbeam mast has arrived in Salzburg. I am now using the extremely robust bottom 5 elements of the 18-metre Spiderbeam HD mast. The clamps for the upper points of the loops have also arrived. All that’s missing now is the top cover and the right weather for installation.

Over the last few days, as far as the cold weather has allowed, I have set up a temporary solution for my AziLoop antenna. It is far from being correctly installed, but you can hear something with it. Perhaps I will be able to erect the new Spiderbeam mast in February.
Philippines.
On the evening of 21 December 2025, very good signals could be heard from the Philippines. With my AziLoop antenna pointing towards 60°, I was able to receive the following stations in Salzburg:
1017 2149 PHL DYRP Life Radio, Iloilo City/Alalasad (ilo) 10530 km
1062 2135 PHL DXKI FEBC Your Friendly Voice, Koronadal=Marbel (sco) 11051 km
1206 2150 PHL DWAN Radyo Ng Bagong Pilipinas, Valenzuela/Wawang (ncr) 10063 km

1530 2200 PHL DZME Kinse Trenta, Obando/Panghulo (bul) 10077 km
It is over. But it is not the end.
For now, my AziLoop dream is over. Despite the Spiderbeam “Heavy Duty” mast and good guy wires. But I’m not giving up, the antenna worked too well for that!
Vanuatu.
Radio Vanuatu can now at Friday, December 19, 2025 be heard after 1830 UT on 5040 kHz in the former “tropical band” with Christmas music. The transmission location is Empten Lagoon, 15,970 km away.

November sun.
Checking the AziLoop antenna. Everything looks very good, one boom has twisted slightly, but the 10° difference will not be heard by the good SWL. Let’s hope for better radio weather!
