I have also found longer antennas better for LW and noted clear differences between 300 ft BOGs and 600 footers. I rarely get 189 here in IL and the only LW audible (I don't spend much time there inspite of 98% of my line noise now gone as there's almost nothing new from TA land I could log) is 171.

I was surprised to note some decent LWBC reception from 189 Iceland this Monday evening, 0244 utc

I noticed a carrier on 1215 here at around 0300UT, but it faded and didn't return. As for 189....think I'll need a bigger antenna and less local noise....


best wishes,

Nick
