[IRCA] Re 1520 Stuff + AM results



At the Ontario DX Association "DX Camp" just northeast
of Toronto this weekend - where most people were DXing
shortwave, one DXer netted this station under WWKB. I
didn't bother trying at that time, having heard it
years ago.

Results overall were terrible to the west, but netted
760 WEFL Tequesta FL and 1080 WTPS in Corla Gables FL,
along with lots of Cubans, and other Latins. Both FL
are new to my Toronto log and I've not heard WEFL at
my Burnt River site either.

1350 Chillicothe OH was another new catch - just as I
was leaving the site this morning, and finally snagged
call letters (WCHI) as I arrived home, downtown.
Otherwise it calls itself "the Oldies Station."

The other highlight was a 4 pm solid ID for 1330 in
Evanston IL. But otherwise, nothing too unusual. I was
really hoping to snag all the western stuff that's
been so prevalent this year.

My next serious shot at MW DXing comes Nov 17-20 at
Burnt River. The building is being renovated, and the
three contractors are staying there while working, but
they usually don't woirk weekends, and I need to check
up on the work. Maybe cx will get back into gear then.
