Yes, at 0300, On The Other Side Of The World
VOA, Via Botswana fires up its Transmitters;
The transmitters, 100 KW, in Gaborone, Botswana,

http://www.brookes.ac.uk/worldwise/d.../www00028.html

(a " Must I Travel THERE ?! " type place from the look of it,
major exports being Hepatitis & Polio )

are actuallly closer to The South Pole than Rural Maine, where WBCQ's 50K watt
transmitters are located.

Just Found it odd that this ionospheric condition occured...
