Re: [IRCA] Oklahoma TP DX 10/3/16

I didn't respond earlier as I have no good sense of what the QRM might be.
Colombia should be available on 810 as mentioned, also 650 and 690.
Venezuela is probably best on 750, but also 770 and 780. Those would
probably be the easiest SA countries from Oklahoma. Another option would be
PJB-800 which also counts as SA.
