[IRCA] South America on MW

[Rick Dau <drummer1965usa@xxxxxxxxx>]

And Brazil on mediumwave here would be a pipedream for me.  
 
Back around December 1994, there were lots of reports of Colombians making it up 
to the U.S. easily, and I'm guessing there must have been a peak of the sunspot 
cycle around that time.  From Iowa City, I logged HJAJ-760, HJJX-770, and 
HJAQ-1000 during that time.  I'm just curious if any other landlocked DXers have 
gotten anything exotic on MW from South America since then.

In any event, it is impressive that you are able to hear Brazil so far inland.  
In Newfoundland we are set up on the edge of the beach.  Jim

Thank you Jim. Indeed, with CFMB 1280, it shouldn't be easy around here.
I'll check for 740 & 880 on another occasion. There is too much t-storms
static in the air tonight.
