[IRCA] AM BCB DX…..ELAD Recordings….1 NEW STATION Heard

[Robert Ross <va3sw@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Guys:

  I'm still working my way through the recordings I made in Early May. Some lousy weather the past few days kept me from my Outside Chores and Yardwork, so I used the time to do some Dxing via the recordings!!

1 NEW AM Station logged and 1 CALL CHANGE as well. Also included here are some RELOGS of stations not heard in quite some time.

Usually by May I have packed up the AM BCB and moved on to FM/TV DX….but with the SDR recordings still netting me some New Stations it gives me some incentive to continue DXing AM!! I am not used to hearing a bunch of New Stations on AM BCB during the month of May, but this is my 6th New Station heard during May, and we are less than half way through the month!! Great Fun, and I can hardly wait for the FM DX to Start so I can carry right on with the ELAD Recordings ….only for FM BCB!!

I remember reading someplace many years ago that if you can DX during the Summer Off Season on the AM BCB, you can log a lot of Closer in stuff that is not heard during the Winter when the Skip seems to lengthen out somewhat. That may very well be correct as I have logged a lot of New Stations that are Lowered Powered and only a state or two away from me…..that have not been heard in my 40 Years of Dxing!! If the Thunderstorms aren't too bad this summer, maybe we can continue with this…..
