I can't figure out the BBC web site for SW frequencies to the

What's the current list of freqs to try.

Thanks

5975 will probably be your best bet. It's on from 21:00 thru 04:00
UTC. It booms in here in the Southeast USA.

Zenith black dial 5 tube Tombstone (1937)
E. H. Scott 23 tube Imperial Allwave in Tasman cabinet (1936)

I can back-up Dan on that. If the BBC has ceased targeting N.America,
their broadcasts on 5975 are strong enough to lend the impression that
the Atlanta-GA area is in the path between the target area and the
transmitter.

The BBC stopped targeting North America specifically (on shortwave) in 2001,
however the broadcasts continue to be heard and are targeted to the Americas.
