Considering there isn't much chance of hearing a trans-Pacific medium wave signal here this time of year, I still listened this morning. I heard barely audible fragments of the broadcast from 774 JOUB between 1140 and 1159 GMT (LSR at 1216). There were no signals on 567, 594, 693, 747 or 972. My receiver was a modified PL-310 with a 7.5-inch ferrite loop antenna.
>From now until late August it is unlikely TP MW signals will propagate this far inland. After listening for TP's, I listened for DX signals from North America. The best DX signal was from XETAR, Guachochi, Chihuahua, on 870 kHz. I was heard signing on at 1300 GMT with the Mexican national anthem and subsequent announcement. From 1309 there was QRM from Vietnamese language KFJZ, Ft. Worth TX. I listened on my PL-606 until 1310. Also, KHAC, Tse Bonito NM, on 880 kHz, with Christian programming in a native American language, was heard at 1245 on a Sony TRF-T615. I hope you had a good DX session overnight.
