Maybe better late than never for a report of this Tuesday morning's reception. Conditions were pretty good for MW TPs--I don't often get audio on MW TP signals. 774 was the best with weak/medium audio; 828 weak; 891 weak; 1053 poor/weak; 1575 poor/weak in the 1440 utc range. Hets on many

Don't think I'll try for this one. They were a pest in Port Huron. They're a pest here, a daytime regular. I did not know they were FSR AN as they are Newstalk/oldies all day. Still, I'm glad to hear you are still having success setting up tests I'm sure there are those out there who need

Yeah, they're a major semi here too, I'd be happy to catch them off air sometime. I have heard them with the ULR from both locations, so no challenge on this one, but I'll still give it a go...maybe I'll find someone else doing something interesting, as I did during the WBIX test (found WMVP

My chances of hearing this aren't good, but I'll be giving it a major try. I have a real QSL card from them for a report in 9/62. Any OT's recall if that was a test also? Bob Coomler Cloverdale, CA --- Jim Pogue [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: WHBC 1480 kHz Canton, OH DX Test Date: Saturday

Bob, I doubt if it was a test. I recall hearing WHBC regularly on Monday Mornings around 3 a.m. PST (during the winter). In the good ole days when the frequency wasn't clogged WHBC roared in on regular schedule. This was 1965-1969 era. Don K. S.F. CA Bob Coomler wrote: My chances of
