In reading my post about KCEY it says 1959 - should say 1969. Sorry

My best two catches on the AM band are KCEY 1
My best two catches on the AM band are KCEY 1390, Turlock CA in February
1959. At that time I lived in Chesapeake, VA and was using a Hallicrafters
S-120 with a simple long wire about 30 feet long and maybe 10 feet in the
air. The verification letter (which I still have) states that I was the
KIHH 1400, Eurkea California with 790 Watts non directional Distance
between them and my listening post, 2100 miles.
For what it was and where it was, it was exceptionally clear.
Heard on December 24th at 1256AM local time (0956UTC) with Sacred type
Christmas music and a Sacred Heart Radio
