I found this interesting;

Should be able to hear it with a basic shortwave radio.

Did you attempt to listen in? How did it go?

I just found this; "Currently, the Asteroid Bounce (2010 XC15) experiment will take place Dec. 27, 2022, from 1100 UTC to 2300 UTC; 9.6 MHz"

I will check just after dinner 🙂

I can't pick up anything here on the N American east coast.
According to some radio forums you have to be on the west coast.

I will keep trying till 23:00 as propagation can change, I will record it if I have any luck.
