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? Jim |

Jim Unless I break out my big ass loop and go out on the deck - I'm not going to hear anything on 710 because of WLW. But I have been able to null them enough to send a report on the 710 freq. and received a QSL but that has been a while ago. All I have in my notes is that I received a QSL but I'd have too dig mine out and look through them. 730 takes me some work also - I've logged WPIT out of Pittsburgh during the day before and received a QSL. But like right now at 2405 UTC there is nothing there - I heard a tad of talking but not enough for it to be an honest verficiation IMO. Some days are better than others - but that is usually the way it is for me on 730 here in the Nati'. |

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... dxAce Michigan USA |
