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

Will write up the full DXpedition report in coming days.

Very hard to believe with IBOC jamming on both KSL and WHO - perhaps,
this is a misleading post about AM DX'ing and that IBOC 's
interfernece is not detrimental.

There would be considerable phase shift at that distance, that and though
the 50,000 watts from KSL might make it halfway around the world in very
particular circumstances, the 500 watt IBOC sidebands most likely would not.
This compared to the fact that a 500 watt signal will do quite well over a
~1500 mile skywave path in many circumstances.

BAD,

Digital Side-Bands beyond a distant just become
Spread-Spectrum Noise while the AM On-Channel
Signal --- can still get trough ~ RHF
