Spent the weekend in Redmond, OR and KFIR was OK using the 2010 and
the Palomar loop. However, I don't have anything to compare it with
so can't really say they are now 10kw vs. their previous 1kw.
This is a nice DX area with the likes of KFAQ-1170 (never heard in

Hi Pete,
Thanks for the interesting report from Redmond. I presume 900 Bend will

Mike,
Congratulations on hearing KFIR on 720 kHZ. I know how strong KDWN is in
Northern California. I lived in the Bay Area and Vacaville. Now up here in

hear Hawaii before I will. South Pacific reception here
