Hi Guys,
Woke up earlier this morning at 4:30 AM local so thought I'd see what I could catch with the K index a bit higher . Dxed for a few hours sitting on several different frequencies in hopes of pulling out some stations under some stronger regular ones and also tried a few graveyard frequencies waiting for any weaker signals to rise to the top.
Other than the usuals I did have a few unidentifieds such as Oldies on 1520 ? mixing with a Gospel station on same ? I turned the radio slightly trying to null the usual powerhouse in Buffalo, NY . I was actually trying for my first Oklahoma station on ULR in possibly hearing KOKC from there but to no avail.
If and when I finally do hear Oklahoma , the catch will be dedicated to our dear friend John Bryant who hailed from that fine state.
I did manage to catch a rare one, not often heard here as follows:
1150 khz - WHBY - Kimberley, Wisconsin 2/14/10 10:20 UTC w/ news & talk and legal ID (under a louder CHGM Gaspe, Quebec ) SRF-M37V barefoot
Also heard:
1160 khz - WYLL - Chicago, Illinois 2/14/10 8:15 UTC w/ religious programming and talk and ID
1250 khz - WGAM - Manchester, New Hampshire 8:19 UTC 2/14/10 w/ sports show and talk , ESPN and legal ID's
1290 khz - CFRW - Winnipeg, Manitoba 2/14/10 8:24 UTC w/ oldies mixing with WRNI in Rhode Island
1310 khz - CIWW - Ottawa, Ontario 2/14/10 10:50 UTC w/ Oldies and "Oldies 13-10" ID by woman
1390 khz - WEGP - Presque Isle , Maine 2/14/10 10:55 UTC w/ talk program and ID
(both CIWW and WEGP were very strong in decent daylight here by this time ! )
Radios used SRF-M37V and SRF-39FP barefoot
Good DX
