Mike:

I get a nasty nasty buzz in almost any direction except NE/SW on the
whole lower end of my band (1100-530) so I was in the right direction
for both Cheyenne & Honolulu who were mixing with each other very
nicely.  Since you heard Saskatoon, I'll be trying for that tonight,
along with Nashville.  Alaska isn't likely as when I beam toward
Anchorage I get this (1) buzzzzzzzzzzzzzz (2) XETNT-Las Mochis & (3)
CISL-B.C. and the latter two are just barely above the QRN.  But I'll
try...I was very happy with KGAB as a new catch & hearing Hawaii once
again after a long dry spell.  Man, I remember when KORL-650 was
considered a lousy pest, back in the 60's & 70's.  I never had it so
good.........73   don

p.s.  I just remembered, I had some c&w music mixing in under KHNR/KGAB
but didn't get an ID.  More likely KMTI-UT as I listen to WSM on the
internet and what I could hear didn't sound like their programming.  dkk
