This is pretty ancient experience Les, but it strikes me that TAs
were not unknown to Chuck Hutton when he lived in the Atlanta area,
which is not tremendously far away from you. I recall that
Beverages may have been involved, but maybe he could venture an opinion.

I've never attempted any Trans-Atlantic DXing from my home here in
the Southeastern US...and have only received a handful of foreign
stations on MW. Mostly in the Caribbean, and South America. But
after reading about DX'ers as far inland as Oklahoma having some
success with TA receptions--I'm wondering if I dismissed this too quickly?
Lots of questions:
1.) Is it possible or likely that I could receive TA's here in
Central Alabama?
2.) What would be the best target stations to start with? I'm
assuming that Radio Farda 1575 might be a good one? What others?
3.) Best time of day to start looking for them?
4.) Optimum mode and bandwidth to look using an SDR-IQ?
Any other advice for someone brand-new to the effort?
