My totally unmodified R75 gets stations on every MW channel.
Without the attenuation removed, it is a pretty dull performer on MW.
I
would imagine you have not been able to detect even the easy TPs with
it.
I can get the TIS stations at LAX and Barstow.
In other words you can't get any TP´s.


WTF is a TP?


Trans-Pacific reception.


Like San Diego?

I've never tried to get any stations from East Asia nor South America on
the MW. It seems that would be more a function of filters than MDS.


Trans Pacifi DX site #1 http://www.qsl.net/n7ecj/

Site #2 http://www.qsl.net/n7ecj/grayland.html

One station mentioned, "1475 MALAYSIA (Borneo) RTVM, Kota Kinabalu SEP 23
1145 - Noted only as a strong het on their normal off-frequency channel.
(Bryant-WA) " was, when I lived in Arizona, the indicator of deep pacific
DX potential. At 600 kw on a non-conventional channel, it came in well quite
frequently and when it was very readable, it meant there might be
opportunities for other TP stuff.

South America is fairly easy from SoCal on MW. The big Colombians below 1100
(Colombia breaks the band into high power (10 kw to 250 kw), medium and low
powers, with the low part of the band all composed of high power stations.
WRTVH has a fairly accurate list of HJs on MW, and I believe (although it is
in Spanish) the regulatory body (Ministerio de Comunicaciones) has a list
online.
