Re: [IRCA] Florida graveyarder into Michigan last night

[Neil Kazaross]

Great catch Tim!  1240 here on south D-KAZ is heavily bothered by WSBC, the
only Chicago area GYer to give me serious grief. I have only 2 sure GY logs
from IL slightly beyond 1000 miles. CJAR 1240 (WSBC was easy to phase to
death with NW BOGs) and WTAN 1340 in very severe AU.

Over the years I've suspected a couple more distant ones in AU's and using
appropriate antennas but couldn't prove it.  73 KAZ

1000+ miles over land is impressive!  Also, a very clear (relatively
speaking) ID and standing out nicely.  My record is 1230 XEIZ in Monterrey,
NL at 956 miles, but they were probably running 10 kW, so that's not quite
the same thing.

Interesting since my best GY was also Radio Dos-1230 in Argentina, but my DX

Thanks guys.  Regarding distance calculation, I keep my logbook at
mwlist.org which automatically calculates the distance (and bearing) from
the transmitter to receiver after you've created an account (free) and
entered in your receiver coordinates.

Eric, here's the best website I've run across for accurately calculating 
straight-line (a.k.a. "as the crow flies") distance between two points:



http://www.daftlogic.com/projects-google-maps-distance-calculator.htm



Wy better than www.indo.com/distance<http://www.indo.com/distance>.   
This one let me pinpoint the exact locations of the KOTS transmitter AND the 
house in west Omaha where I was living at the time.

Very nicely done, Tim!  My lifetime graveyard distance record belongs to a 
reception of KOTS-1230 Deming, New Mexico that I got from Millard (a section of 
west Omaha), Nebraska.  893 miles.  That was accomplished, by the way, in late 
August 2002, nowhere close to the typical "dead of winter" peak for graveyard 
receptions that normally happens in early February.

Interesting auroral conditions early yesterday evening stirred up WMMB on
1240 from Melbourne, Florida, busting my previous distance record of 962
miles when KANE (also on 1240) was heard here during similar conditions a
few years ago.  WMMB comes in at 1,088 miles and is now my furthest GY
catch.  Here's a Perseus recorded video of the excitement:

1400 WJQS out of Jackson, MS. also made it here last night and was another
new GY catch at 782 miles and now my furthest on 1400.

Mine by frequency:

1240   TGK   Guatemala City1516
1340   KXXY   Oklahoma City762  
1400   KILE   Galveston TX781
1450   WKAL   Rome NY684
1490   WIGM   Medford WI 726


Only KFPW and TGK were heard on regular schedule.  KILE was a frequency check 
with voice; the other three were DX tests (voice on WIGM only).  Except for 
TGK, nothing beyond 781 miles has ever made it.  I've got bigtime station 
density to the north, south, east and west ...
