Ireland 549 also heard here last night for the first time, peaking 
strongly around 0300 utc.  Very strange to hear C&W on a Euro 
channel...  I was gazing at the EMWG and pondering who it might be, 
when my wife came along, looked over my shoulder, and pointed out 
this station called "Hot Country-CIMR" in Monaghan, Ireland.  Eureka!

Conditions were also good to the west last night... I surprised myself 
by catching KNX briefly rising up over a somewhat-nulled CHOK with an 
ID at 2307 EST.  Only heard once before, and I never expected it to 
happen with 1070 hammered from both sides by IBOC, but WTIC 
cooperated by leaving theirs off last night, and KYW's hiss was 
subdued somewhat by using LSB.  Also noted were western indicators 
such as CKLQ-880, CJGX-940, CHRB-1140 (huge!), CBK-540, and I'm 
pretty sure CKWX was in the mix on 1130.
