Tropicals?

SE Asia?

Utes?


Heavily into utes these days. Mostly static (QRN, QRM). There are JT-65
HF beacons way under a Watt that make challenging targets. I also still
enjoy MWDX. (Thanks again to the mostly evil Citadel for keeping their
IBOC off at night). I'm still playing with my elevated radials on my 43'
vertical. Antennas are an endless source of delight.

Confession: I don't have the general coverage front end filter set for
my K3. The trusty old ICOM is GC. My main MWDX machine remains the Drake
SW2.

I live in Western USA. 24 hours a day I just tune the dial listening
for Australian or NZ accents.
Bingo, its like a 55 years ago again. Sanity!
Sorry for East Coast American listeners, but EU programming sucks.
And if you speak Spanish then the SW bands are still your friend.
Young SWers: Aprendan ustedes hablar espanol !
The latinos will be the last stations to fall.
Or (if you can learn CW), those bands in English aren't corrupted yet
either.

Greetings Herman!

Thanks so much for relating this site! I really like the concept.
Me, I enjoy the Utes, and I listen for SE Asia and northern Europe.
Have a great weekend! Jon Boy. kg4gfu.

North American AM mode amateur stations -- some of them with impressive
audio, and homebrew or extensively modified commercial and broadcast
gear -- can be found all over 160 meters, 3705 to 3733 kHz, 3870 to 3890
kHz, 7160 kHz, 7285-7295 kHz, and 29100 to 29300 kHz. They're not there
all the time, but with a little patience they will be found. They even
have an extensive forum on the Web at

Waste of bandwidth and power. AM died in the '50s for good reason.
