Thought I would tune around in nine increments to see if I could hear
something. I have nothing on 710 or 730 right now so it has to be
transantlantic - would that be coorect?

The only thing I can find is this

I'm going to keep it here for a while to see if it fades away or gets
better. They were playing music about ten minutes ago and now there is
talking and I as I type - back to the music but just not quite audible
enough to make it out.:-I

Last night I did some mw listening.
WOR was on 710. CFZM Toronto is on 740.
730 had a country music station I could not ID.
Also on 730 a French station and from time to time a Spanish station
would fade in. Will listen to this frequency a bit more tonight.

Using a 3 ft box loop (home brew) facing N-S in SE Michigan. Any ideas
on the 730 country music station?


At 0030 I'm starting to pick up traces of country music on 730. About a half hour
earlier I had 740 Toronto in. I'm using the 200' W-E wire on 730, but at that frequency
I'm not about to trust it's directionality.

I'd have to wait a bit before I could use the SR II, and not certain I'll stay up that
late. SS is around 9 PM EDT here.


Bummer! That sucker on 730 popped right up and mentioned a George Straight song, was hoping
for an ID but nada, then into some oil ad by YL...

That's it. 10 pm EDT is best for reception. I will listen some myself.
Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives is all repeats anyway.

Jim,
Listening on the KWZ-30
