It has been so damn hot here, I wish for the cool/cold, clear nights,
with all the MW stations booming in. Now, it is only local crap, mostly

want Cubans or the Caribbean, then it is OK, but for everything else,
forget about it.

If you used small loops or phased arrays of active verticals, etc., you
could slice those interfering Cubans away.
