Default Good late night West Coast DX targets?

Hi, I live on the West Coast, specifically in Portland, OR. What are
some good late night DX targets to listen for....say around 8 or 9
GMT? I used to be able to get Radio Vanuatu, Solomon Islands I think
on 4890, and also a Russian fishing fleet station on 5015 quite well.
I have been out of the "scene" for a few years and am out of date on
what is active or not. I tend to like programs with musical content,
since listening to a strange language does not hold my interest for
long!

During the day I am able to get the CBC out of Vancouver on 6160 and
also if conditions are right the Arabic station on 15435. BTW, my
radio is a RS DX-392 and I am just using the whip now, but can hook up
a longwire and my MFJ tuner if needed to get tougher signals.



thanks
