Thanks Martin,

Your posting of that information is appreciated. Considering that KFAQ was 
running Coast to Coast at the exact time that I heard it in the Cooks (and that 
the station has been received occasionally in NZ), the evidence seems pretty 
convincing.

Wow, thanks very much, Richard!

At 5,642 miles, KFAQ was the farthest DX received from the USA during the Cook 
Islands DXpedition. The most distant station overall was 693-Bangladesh in 
Dhaka, at 7,960 miles.

Reception of 1170-KFAQ in the Cook Islands was fun, but probably not as much 
fun as your reception of 702-2BL and 774-3LO in Oklahoma with your Ultralight 
and 8" FSL antenna :-)

Very good catch.

Thanks Todd,

KFAQ sounds logical to me if it carries the Coast to Coast program.

Oddly enough almost all the USA signals received in the Cook Islands came from 
California, with the exception of 1160-KSL (which blasted in at an S9+++ level 
on one night). Since I was DXing in the DU area, maybe these signals should be 
called UA's (Up Above)?
