The null-north (~350 deg.) 10m vertical by 11m horizontal (base ht. 2m)
cardioid-pattern SuperLoop has been proving its worth lately nulling
Boston, Montreal, Manchester/Rochester/Dover/Portsmouth (NH), and
Portland (ME) stations. Tonight I had WAPA San Juan, Puerto Rico often
atop 680 WRKO Boston. 610 had Cuba (// big 600) slugging it out with
WIOD-FL with no trace of NH. It appeared that, at least in the 600-800
kHz segment, Latin Americans were well represented.
With a flip of the switch over to the 9x15m null-255 deg. (NYC)
SuperLoop, TA's popped up with usual blasters such as France on 945
making a good showing. In general, the lower end of the MW band had
most of the interesting stuff. Excessive congestion of domestics in
the 1220-1600 range tended to make that part of the dial less
interesting at least at 10 p.m. EDT / 0200 UTC when I checked. Local
sunset (5:30-6 p.m. EDT range these days) is when the frequencies above
1200 kHz seem most productive.
