All,
here some real "DX":
The explosion of the Krakatoa (1883) was heard in Perth (Australia), 3100 km
away, and on the island of Rodrigues, 5000 km away.

Hello All,
two years ago someone disturbed my breakfast by a deeply
hammering disco sound. So I took my car to search for
the source. Surprisingly, the sound decreased to nearly
zero when I drove some kilometers in that direction where
the sound seem to come from. The Odyssey took 45 minutes.
But finally I found the open-air disco 20 km from my home
in a lonely wood.
Indeed, the sound took nearly 60 seconds from there to my
home. That's more than a thunder usually reaches.
More than thousand square-kilometers where contaminated,
including 23 protected nature resevats.
Yes we can, but Mankind should not do everything what it can.
73!
Klaus, DJ5HG
