I think you would only have to get up early if you haven't yet figured out how
to use an SDR with scheduler software.
When I went to Ireland in 1977, I used to listen to East Coast USA and Canada,
including hometown news, by tuning in on my Realistic TRF just before sunrise.
On a business trip to California in 1991, I heard several Japanese stations
(774 best) on my Sony ICF-2010 around 5-6 a.m. before hitting the shower and
then the road to go into work.
If it's auroral, pre-dawn can even be productive here. Not having the stamina
that I had in younger years, I would take advantage of today's technology and
run the scheduler every time.

Hey! We deal with greater distances, lower powers and.... we have to get up
early...
Ever gotten up early? Violates the Geneva convention. :-)
