Welcome!

My name is Alex (aka ulx2). Welcome to my new DX blog dedicated to all the aspects of long and short distance radio reception in Kyiv, Ukraine! I’m mostly using simple portable receivers (e.g. Degen DE-1103) and its telescopic whips or various random wires as antennas for my observations.
