I can think of three right off the bat...
XEROK-800 (which everyone within 500 miles of Juarez should be able to get on
his/her fillings)
XEBJB-570 (logged years ago, but I think it's no longer on the air)
XEABC-760 (which I'm still trying for, but XEES keeps getting in the way!)
73,
Thanks for that info Colin. I have been looking for a small HF transceiver
with good MW performance, but there isn't much in depth info on the hams
forums. The 703+ is also a nice looking rig. Jim - WA1EDN

Last summer when I took a mini midday DXpedition to Cameron Corners, CA, I was
able to get KSAZ at noon in August. It was faint, but there, when using the
Tecsun PL-380 and Select-A-Tenna. I'd post a recording, but I just found out

XEROK used to be a pest up here at over 1,000 miles, but I have not
heard it in years here. It is funny how a strong pest can disappear in a
decade or so, maybe a couple decades and XEROK was strong in the old
days.

I've logged 960 XEFAMA, Ciudad Camargo CH MEX. I
believe it is my longest medium wave call.

Here in the NW, we may have a fighting chance to log KSAZ this time
around as both Ashland OR Fresno CA are both talk and hearing SS
through them may be easier. I am going to give it a shot. A new AZ catch
is rare here. I would prefer morse code/tones, but at least Frank
Luna-CE is going to run

Hi Colin,
Indeed, the IC-703+ is very nice for MW in a compact package!
I owned the newer IC-7000 for a while and it is hot on MW. The IF-DSP
filtering and PBT is great, and found the noise reduction feature very
effective.
Have you seen Bjarne Mjelde's review of the IC-703 from a MW DXing
Can anyone out there in IRCA'er land give me the FCC page link which allows me
to put in the AM calls and get info back on the station? I had

anticipation of any help.
Best wishes
Barry :-)

Just for reference, 404 is the internet code for what you are looking for
does not exist. If you need something before FCC is available again, try:

I rarely use FCC because it is so cumbersome.

That's exactly why I don't use it, either. For example, if I am looking for
information regarding a station's sunrise and sunset times (for sign-ons,
sign-offs, and daytime/nighttime pattern changes) for each month, I go with...

XEROK has been a regular here in El Cajon, CA, even with a co-channel local,
but I just checked them, and there's something behind the local but it's too
weak to tell what it is. What's happened to XEROK??
