KORL 650 Honolulu, from Albany NY, in 1965.


Nice catch. What was the receiver, antenna type and time of year?

BTW- That year (1965) was close to the minimum of the sunspot cycle
then, which favors MW DX'ing.


In 1960-1961, from Cleveland, OH, on an HQ-180 and a tuned but not amplified
air core loop, I had these Hawaiians

650 KORL 10 kw
690 KULA 10 kw
760 KGU 10 kw
830 KIKI 250 watts
870 KAIM 5 kw I believe (not sure these were the calls then)
1040 KHVH 5 kw
1270 KNDI 5 kw
1380 KPOI 5 kw.

I think there were a couple of others, but definitely verified those above.
