It must be the beginning of DX weather again. Laying in bed the past
several nights I have heard clear station I.D.'s for the CBC broadcast
from Winnipeg, Manitoba on 990 kHz and for WFLA from Tampa, Florida on
540 kHz, 1012 and 992 miles respectively from my location in WNY. I
knew 540 was likely Florida because I tuned in during the forecast when
the weatherman was predicting temperatures in the upper (humid) 80's.
Actually, I found reception of Winnipeg more surprising because I had
never heard even a whisper of it before on any radio. Makes me wonder
if they changed their antenna pattern. As I have often written before,
kudos to Sangean for producing such a fun little radio.

540 kHz is WFLA in Orlando; WFLA Tampa is 970 kHz. Temperatures in the
upper 80's was a cool day!

Happy DX,
