Here in MN, I'm about at 45 degrees north & about 1,100 air miles inland from Boston. I've had audio from both a few times using just an 8" amplified loop. I'd guess if someone had a long uni-directional antenna in a noise free location, hooked up to a sharply selective receiver, they'd probably be semi-regular with audio. Seems I can get at least a weak carrier most nights. I don't keep very good records but am guessing Algeria is #3 here for TA audio after Spain & France. UK & Morroco aren't really rare, rest I'd say infrequent: Portugal, Canary Islands, Holland, Switzerland, Denmark, Germany, Belgium, Saudi Arabia, Finland. 73, George S., MN --- On Fri, 1/7/11, Saul DX <sau...@sympatico.ca> wrote:

Even during the worst conditions. I'd like to hear from any inland DXer who has a wire in the right direction and who has tried for them, and NOT been able to raise audio (beyond the het). ----- Original Message ----- From: "Marc DeLorenzo" <midcapem...@aol.com> To: <irca@hard-core-dx.com>; <a...@lists.wtfda.info> Sent: Friday, January 07, 2011 4:49 PM Subject: [Amdx] Algeria-531 & 549 kHz > > Once again, the Algerians on 531 & 549 kHz are Loud & Clear at 2145 UTC with > man in Arabic and North African vocals with violins & drums.
