Thanks to all who responded - Patrick, Chuck, Charles, Nick, Bruce, and Colin.
I have compiled a list, which I intend to use as a checklist, of your suggestions organized around sunrise and sunset in Tofino. In some cases I was confused by terms sunrise and sunset. I wasn't sure if the reference was to Tofino or the source of the signal. Please correct the errors. Is there an optimal time for the longwave signals? I used the following while working on the list. Where there was more than one station on a frequency, I chose the one with the higher power. http://www.radioheritage.net/PAL_search.asp http://radiostationworld.com/ http://www.thesunrisetimes.com/ http://timeanddate.com/ Thanks again for your suggestions. I look forward to DXing using your advice.
