Hearing Broadcast AM on 185, 170, 166 KHz etc- quite audible. Wish I knew
French.

I used to hear those broadcasts routinely at sea with moderate but
consistent signal strengths in the North and South Atlantic. My gosh... the
power they were running! What did that Saudi station run---megawatt or so?

Best DX for me was on 500 kHz. The WLO (Mobile, Alabama) traffic list
announcement heard with excellent signals early one morning near Montevideo,
Uruguay while navigating the La Plata to Buenos Aires.
