>750 - CJVR - CANADA, SASK. MELFORT, good o/KXL w/"Todays >Country on 750
CJVR" IDs, C&W mx at 0640  EST 2/28. Never hrd on >750 before, logged and
QSL'd yrs ago on 1420. (PM-OR)

I logged them a year ago last October -- on a cheap dual-cassette
recorder -- after hearing them on a GE Superadio III.  Both radios were
in one of those office chairs that swivel.  Great for nulling!  The
signal level was tremendous, completely wiping out WSB in Kansas City.  I
regret that I never did get around to QSLing them, but I still have the
tape.

That logging may be my most distant.  I'll have to check.  Maybe KFI is
a bit farther from here.  I did a crude measurement and seem to recall
that 
Melfort is about 1700 kM from here.  In any case CJVR is quite a catch,
especially with powerhouses like KXL and WSB co-channel!

(No, WSB is not in Kansas City.  I am in Kansas City.  I meant the signal
of WSB in Kansas City, heh)
