Re: Improving LW
Hey Steve/all:
I tried in the past to buy a M37L, but they are apparently only available in Europe, primarily in the UK, where they go for about $45 US plus whatever the shipping would be. KK

Peter,
A website that I use a lot for Mexican DX is:
http://mexicoradiotv.com/frec_am.htm
Fred Cantu maintains that website and updates it frequently.
Another resource I use is the IRCA's Mexican Log.

so before going to bed. Any ideas on 530? What's a good place to
find Mexican info? I have to guess from the frequency, since

Bonjour Charly !
It's about the same here (near Chambery) under daylight conditions.
Only 162, 183, 216 and 234 are audible (both France Inter and RMC being pretty weak).
