[IRCA] Fwd: Daytime MW bandscan




Ahum ... The receiver in service for the 2007 bandscan was the Icom R75 (which I still own). I had my Perseus a year later, in 2008.

Hi All,

A while ago, I published my first Daytime MW bandscan http://www.quebecdx.com/daytime_mw_bandscan_august_2007.html

Now seven years later, I finally gave me some time to work on an updated edition of the bandscan. Both versions came from late August and I have been using the same receiver and antennas, namely my trusty Perseus and my two Summer Beverages (105m/350ft NE-SW unterminated + 225m/750ft terminated towards Africa).

It is stunning to observe that within 7 years how many stations especially from Quebec, that have left the air completely or have migrated to FM. Just to say, my nearest local AM stations are now from Montreal, nearly 200 Km away! The 910 frequency also made me scratch my head. On Barry McLarnon's list, WAEI which appear silent was still alive actualy. Indeed, the station is now simulcasting WBAK ID'ing itself as "Big 104 FM" with an Oldies format.
