Re: [IRCA] #2000 logged from Michigan

For NL, way back after CBL went off when there was no Toronto station I got
740 in IL once. From WI which is much better towards the ENE than here in
IL 750 using Phased BOGs comes in sometimes. //990 has shown up a couple
times. 1140 CBI once. Cx that bring them in typically are also good for
lower latitude TA's...ie Spain everywhere. CKNB 950 is a regular when using
those ENE BOGs in WI but never a trace in IL even with the DKAZ array beam
steered ENE. The effect of my WI place being on a bluff about 150 ft above
the Lake Michigan shore and being a bit closer to them, I presume.

Defunct Maritimes on 720 and 780 were possible with Phased BOGs in IL even
though I am closer than 15 miles to both Chicago superpowers. 73 KAZ
