MM's were fun, but I was too young to get into the heyday! I do recall from
Narragansett RI in the late 70's in July when almost the entire country was
in a heat wave. I'd spent much of the MM DXing on my phased Bevs aimed SSW
but before going to bed, I switched over to the Sanserino Loop. WBAL 1090
was off and their was no Ontario stn then. Hmm...NBC nx and a wx report for
high's in the 70's aimed WNW from me. This had to be Montana and a phone
call the next day confirmed that it was.
