According to our
calculations,
this
th
was
the
54
DXpedition
to
Sheigra,
a
tiny
crofting village in the
far north-west of the
Scottish mainland,
just a few miles
south
of
Cape
Wrath. We decided
quite late this year
to make the long
drive north, so the
cottage we have
used as our DX
base in recent years
was only available
for
one
week.
However, we were
pleased to be given
the chance of using
another cottage in
Sheigra
the
following
week.
Moving
cottages
after the first week
meant we would
have the hassle of
having to dismantle
receivers etc and aerials, as well as moving ourselves, albeit only a short distance. But it would also
give us the chance to try out beverage aerials in different directions in Week 2. Mary’s cottage
(Week 1) favoured aerials to the East and South, whilst Murdo’s cottage (Week 2) favoured aerials
to the North and West (similar in fact to the old cottage that had been used by DXers visiting
Sheigra until 2001).
After arriving in a cloudy but dry Sheigra early afternoon on the 5th October, we were able to put up
the Far East and Asia beverages before sunset, plus a short wire to the south for African shortwave.
1
This would be extended up the very steep hillside to the south the following morning to complete our
beverage for Africa (and UK LPAMs). All our aerials are beverages made of thin 7-strand wire
inserted in the tops of bamboo garden canes. No aerial across the road from Mary’s cottage to the
north specifically for North America in the first week, though the 90 degree beverage was
unterminated so would pick up the Americas off the back.
th
Good to have all the aerials up before Monday (7 ), which was a wild wet and very windy day with a
lot of white waves pounding the rocky coastline and crashing into Sheigra cove a few hundred
metres from the cottage. Discovering there was a break somewhere in the Far East aerial meant
heading out into the northerly gale to fix it. In fact the aerial had broken at the far end where it joined
the copper earth rod, such was the severity of the gale. We were in danger of being blown off our
feet once out of the relative shelter of the valley checking our other two aerials for damage to canes
or wire so were glad when we back in the shelter and warmth of Mary’s cottage. After that stormy
day, the weather improved for the rest of the fortnight, with no more gales, mild temperatures in the
mid to high teens, blue skies and lots of warm sunshine! Shorts were even worn on the Sheigra
hillsides! The calm weather made Sheigra seem even more peaceful than usual with just the
sounds of the gurgling stream, lapping waves, sheep and birdsong – plus the occasional thump
thump from 1000 lb bombs being dropped by the military during their ‘Joint Warrior’ exercise (7-17
October) on land and sea around Cape Wrath to the north of us. Our walking during the fortnight
was restricted to the hills, cliff tops and beaches around Sheigra, with just one longer trek up the
peat track to a rocky bay. As well as trips to Kinlochbervie to stock up on food, we also visited
Durness on the north coast and had some nice fish and chips at Smoo Cave Hotel.
Week 1 with the primary aerials favouring the Middle East and Asia we concentrated mainly on
these areas. The start of the week on 6 October saw excellent conditions to Asia and the Far East
with logs of Okinawa (648), Pakistan (1260), Philippines (1350). On 7-8 October conditions went
slightly auroral and only gradually improved during the rest of the week with stations from Middle
East (particularly Iran and Saudi Arabia) dominating many channels.
The middle Saturday of the fortnight saw us pack up and move across to Murdo’s cottage, a
traditional comfortable crofters cottage very similar in appearance to the first cottage used in
Sheigra (1985-2001). We left the three beverages used in the first week from Mary’s cottage in situ
to take down
at our leisure
and
gave
priority
on
Saturday
to
putting up the
aerials
from
our new base
for North and
Latin America.
left: Dave and
Tony winding in
the 90° Asian
aerial used in
Week 1.
This was the
first time since
2001 we were
able to put up
an aerial to the sea edge for Central and Latin America. And we hoped that our North American
aerial, straight out onto the hillside behind the cottage with no need to cross the road would be more
successful than in recent years. It would prove to be the quietest of the three aerials during our
second week. And so as to still maybe hear some DX from the Far East, our third and final
beverage for Week 2, ran eastwards, partly along the top of a fence, parallel to the old peat track.
2
Our Sheigra reports have often
related in previous years of
damage wrought by sheep or
deer on our aerials. Our North
American aerial was now raised
on taller canes (approx 8ft) in its
middle section in an attempt to
reduce damage by deer at night.
So this year it’s good to report no
wire breaks at all by creatures
great or small! Three canes
snapped at the base and a lot of
trampled grass suggested deer
had been around one night, but
the wire remained intact. And a
broken Far East aerial wire we
put down to tension on well-used
old wire, rather than deer
jumping the fence.
left: Alan and Tony listening in
Murdo’s cottage during Week 2.
In Week 2 we turned our attention to the Americas, conditions overnight favoured the Caribbean
and East Coast of North America, along with the northern part of South America. Notable logs
included Radio Carraviz, Peru (audible most mornings around 0700 mixing with Radio Bethel), US
Virgin Islands on 970 and AM Gold in Bermuda with a fine local ID at 2130 on 1450 kHz. East Coast
Canadians were heard as early as 2130 until fade-out around 0900 most mornings. We also
continued to log Asia with reception peaking around 1630 UTC most days before these weaker
signals got drowned out by stronger UK and European stations. On 12th-14th we were pleased to log
several Peruvian and Bolivian stations on the tropical bands, as well as Guatemala on 4050.
Unfortunately electrical interference can be a problem at Sheigra nowadays, its not a strong as we
are used to at home, but can be particularly troublesome in the mornings when North American DX
signals fades into electrical noise (about S3 to S5 on the meter) rather than into the receiver noise
floor. But in the
afternoon
and
overnight period the
DX
signals
are
usually
strong
enough not to be
troubled by it. The
QRM seems to be
coming in via the
electricity supply and
phone lines.
Right: Dave fixing a
join on one of the tall
canes supporting the
middle section of our
North American
beverage in Week 2.
To gain extra height in
this area, which is
prone to damage by
deer, two 5ft canes
are taped together.
