Lui, Gough / VK2FGYL

First and foremost, I would like to thank you for your interesting program and` use of HAARP to transmit audio and images as experiments like these are often inspiring and educational, especially in regards to shortwave radio. Your experiments have captured my interest and I hope to be able to receive your transmissions over the coming days as well.

My name is Gough Lui and I am a technology enthusiast (goughlui.com, @lui_gough), a radio amateur (VK2FGYL), a shortwave listener/utility station monitor and an interdisciplinary engineer (PhD in Civil and Environmental Engineering, B.E. in Photovoltaics and Solar Energy Hons I). While I live near Sydney, Australia, due to the time of day, reception of your
program is unlikely at my location, made worse by a high noise floor.

Instead, I have leveraged the network of publicly available KiwiSDR receivers owing to their more suitable location and better receiving antennas to attempt reception of your 0030-0130UTC program on 26th March 2019. Reception was attempted across a total of nine different receivers, although a majority of them were unable to resolve any signal clearly above their noise floor that could not be mistaken for interference from other stations.

I did, however, have success with KPH Maritime Radio Station's KiwiSDR (California, USA) which clearly resolved the SSTV images from Movement VIII on 7900kHz in AM mode (audio link):

I also had success with KK6PR's KiwiSDR (Oregon, USA) which clearly copied the NATO phonetic alphabet story of Movement VIII received on 8000kHz in AM mode (audio link): "My grandfather found a thing in the woods. A box with cameras hanging from a parachute. It came from the CIA. The DND took it."

There is a small amount of leak-through of the SSTV resolved on KK6PR's reception, which is illustrated in my GIF animation:
