610 here recently has been, more or less in order of dominance:
WIOD-FL
Rebelde Cuba
R. Carinosa, Colombia
WTEL-PA
WGIR-NH
Not much chance for MT through that 'scrum'.
730 is a solid wall of CKAC / Progreso de Cuba / Melodia de Colombia.
Sometimes WLTQ-SC.
1130 WBBR often the strongest night skip signal. Brazil, Venezuela, KWKH way
way under. Vancouver won't have much of a chance against all that.
Regarding TP/DU, I have checked several recent captures made at 1000 and 1100
UTC (sunrise is about 1050 UTC these days). So far, ZILCH! The best
candidates would be on the lower latitude routes avoiding the auroral oval.
738 is pretty well trashed by CFZM / R. Angulo 740 slop. 1017 has IBOC from
WBZ. 1098 gets hammered by WTAM on any antenna that has any western pick-up.
But 702 Aussie might be playable since 700 (WLW + Colombia) is non-huge.
On the higher latitude stations, Japan 747 is likely the best candidate since
750 (Venezuela, Cuba, WSB, CBGY) is not a big-signal channel at least after
1000 UTC. But nothing noted there so far. 774 takes a beating from 770 (WABC
mostly, Cuba + Colombia secondarily). 972 is next to pest 970 WZAN (and
secondarily WNYM) but might squeak by. 1566 takes a serious hammering from
1560 WFME and 1570 CJLV / WMVX.
In the '90s I got the Korean jammer on 1053 at nearby Harwich, MA (despite NY
on 1050). Elsewhere around New England, Chris Black and Bruce Conti have
received some of the other TP's and DU's.
PEI and Newfoundland DXpeditions have done quite a bit better.
Right now I have to do some antenna repairs after the 50+ mph winds we got over
the weekend.

Subject: [NRC-AM] KOJM 610 MT into IL this morning (CDT)
KOJM made it under KCSP pest this morning! I noted rock mx at 0657 and then
some talk and an ID and then wx into ABC news. By 0700 which is about my LSR
time KCSP had faded and KOJM was almost alone.
Also new this morning was CHMJ 730 with Vancouver traffic and nice AM 730 All
Traffic All the Time slogans. This again about 0700 and in a mix. This wasn't
strong and clear as CKWX 1130 was at times.
On the TP/DU front I did have some island mx from V7AB 1098 at about 1058 UT.
No Aussies were audible although I had plenty of carriers. Aussie cx were
better 10 days or so ago.
73 KAZ 55 km NW of Chicago. Perseus and DKAZ due west
