David:

FYI I've been picking up Radio New Zealand 0n 17.675 for the last couple of
nights;
down here in NYC, but - using a Long random wire;

It usually booms in starting in the Spring & summer, but This I find unusual,
it being near
the winter solstice when reception of New Zealand should be next to impossible;

And Radio Australia on 9.580 is solid enough in the morning to get the news at
8:00 A.M. or so

& I do wonder what reception would be like at night atop Mt Washington ;
In the Summer, You might be able to Pitch a tent up near the AMC hut at Lake
of The Clouds
sling up a random wire & see what you can get

- Presevere !
