Re: [IRCA] Dxing from Signal Hill, Newfoundland

[Saul DX <sauldx@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I tried for CJME 980 Regina from Burnt River ON this morning. It's a 
most-wanted on my target list. And I really thought I'd nailed it - a news 
item mentioning the Regina Chamber of Commerce. But the voice then said it 
was Broadcast News (a Canadaian commercial radio cooperative newswire 
service many stations use) and then went into an ID for what was CFPL London 
ON.

I did manage KSL 1160 Utah, not heard here in many years, but otherwise it 
was not worth the early wake-up.

Cuban Rebelde stations, like the one on 1180 and 670, can be easily //ed to 
SW 5025.

TA activity started off hot last night, got significantly worse as evening 
progressed.
