Thanks, John.

Best A.M. DX for me was

picking up traffic reports on 770 WABC

on a $29.95 ten band radio

when I was on an island in The Bahamas

The opening was only a short one and I was concentrating on getting a
recording of a decent station ID on the TOH, so the only other station I
heard was probably Boston on 1510.

Nice clear reception of WWKB Buffalo N.Y. at 0400 at first light this
morning.
This on its internal ferrite rod only
CNN news programming
Reception was almost as good as on my big rigs.
My GE SRIII couldn't even hear it
This station is 13,000 km's/8,000 miles from this QTH


Which receiver were you using?


Sorry, I didn't see the subject heading. That is pretty amazing reception
using just the internal ferrite stick. Did you hear any other US stations
on MW at that time?
