Ok, so it isnt really DX, but our station owner let me borrow a radio of his
from the office.
I logged a beacon on 356kHz which repeated "ODX" in morse code voer and
over. Runs 25 Watts from The Evelyn Sharp Airfield/Ord AIrport which is
about 2 miles by air NW of when I originally heard it, sitting at my desk in
the KNLV offices. I'd rate it about 6 1/2 out of 10 on the signal scale.
(1 being bad, 10 being good)
Powell Way helped me ID the first two letters, O and D as I held my cell
phone up to the radio. I don't know Morse code myself.
Paul
