Default MW catches heard in South Africa

Just back from Seefontein.
Ended up really great for me = another great catch, the last
of the day and session as the sun wiped out the signals:
1160khz 0502z 090319 "KSL" Salt Lake City UT with clear recorded ID,
15,558km's/9667miles away - another catch of a lifetime = really
thrilled.
Also 1040 WHO Des Moines IA (14200 km's away) and
1550 "CBC R.1" CBE Windsor Ontario
both not to be sneezed at

Full official sunrise was at 0449

Good snags, Plimmer. KSL is a monster in the USA West.
