Re: Cuban on 890? From Memphis, TN???
Last night conditions were right and at 2117 CDT I got an ID! It was Radio Progreso from Cuba, on 890. So it's CMDZ Chambas, at Ciego de Avila. That's about 1780 km or so from Memphis, weak but

Re: New antenna, new loggings
Nice! Sounds like you've designed a sweet DXing antenna at a bargain price. Also a very reasonable project for relative novices.

WGN (The Super Station) and WJR!!!! Those are two historic stations, I get fairly regularly every night here in south west Ohio. I'm glad I go a early birthday present today of a digital recorder.
