I would normally defer to the expertise of the Pacific Northeast MW DXers on this, but you seem to be ignoring the factors I am basing this on --- DF from the north, the existence of a grayline path at this hour, and a megawatt to start with. I was getting 774 Japan carrier about the same time at its usual northwest DF, and 594 was definitely not the same direxion. A transpolar grayline from India would not apply to your location. I hope other DXers in central North America will give this a try just before local sunrise. I am not likely to be able to pull any audio. Language at that time is Bangla/Bengali. A simple DX-398 is handy for DFing vs big fixed antennas.

Unless
you heard some distinctive music or established a parallel
or online stream,I'd say with 99%
certainty that you were tuning in Japan.
India is indeed possible on the West Coast --
with better than average antennasand receivers
and ideal conditions.
We are currently at a medium low point in the DX
season which "should" turn aroundin the
next 2 - 3 weeks if past experience is any
guide.Â
