Greetings:
I've heard speculation that Sam is in Arizona or New Mexico.
I'm in NE Arizona, using an RX-320 with a 600' north-south longwire about 80' off the ground. Here is what I observed at 05:15 UT:
3700: Sam sounds close, but not enough to cover all QRN 4300: lots of QRM here (FAX), but Sam is strong enough to block most of it 6500: QRM here too (weather and FAX), but Sam is barely readable underneath 10500: No Sam at all
Sounds to me like:
1) Sam is close with very low power--which means east coast probably cannot hear him at this time 2) Sam is somewhat distant from Arizona/New Mexico
Is my thinking correct?
Well, you're certainly not in the ground wave zone. We need to find someone who can hear Sam on 3700 24 hrs a day. That person would be fairly close to Sam, within maybe 500 hundred or so miles. That would at least narrow down the QTH to a region of the country. The best comparison to Sam's 3700 kHz I can make is CHU on 3330 kHz. In my location, north central Maryland, I can get it most of the day, during normal solar/geomag conditions.
