The main problem with the NW AM group is I am in a valley at the west side of the Cascade foothills. All the predominant AMers are over the hill NE of me. I think the ground wave is just not making it here at the present time. I have been using my SB-301 the AM filter for listening to 3870. It is in good condition. The major problem is the indoor antenna. But then I can sometimes receive W1AW CW practice on 80M. Very strong. The only 40M phone I have found has been SSB and then mostly during contests.
