[HCDX] I DID IT!! I finally logged KBRW-680-Barrow AK!!!



After several tries and several tentatives through the past 25 or so
years, I finally got a def log on my most wanted Alaskan.

680     AK, Barrow  KBRW, fairly decent at times with powerhouse KNBR in
a very tight phase from 0615 to 0720 UTC 10/10. Often would fade up over
KNBR with back to back ol rock, a bit of Bluegrass, and even some Roger
Williams tossed in. No ID I could catch at 0700, just more non stop
oldies, But at 0716, there was a pause of dead air followed by a female
ID as "KBRW 680 Barrow and  ????? (numbers and letters)  88.1 Deadhorse
(Some lp relay I guess). Then into a lengthy weather forecast, for the
North Arctic coastal areas. Then 0724, back into non stop oldies. This
was one of my toughest logs ever, with KNBR so darn strong up here. As I
mentioned, I have logged KBRW several times in the past tentatively, but
never enough for a report that could be verified. Yipee!!! Now to get
that QSL....This made my day, heck it made my year, maybe even the
decade!!!
