I have always liked DXing in the winter time, besides the enhanced DX opportunities I like the heat given off by my old boatanchors. Nothing like listening to a central american AM station with a 26 tube R-390A under a lamp with a 60 watt incandescent bulb in it! Call the environmental police! haha! I used to listen to RJR with an HRO-60 and along with the reggae music I really felt like I was in Jamacia.
