Re: [IRCA] Greenland returns to Medium Wave



Jim,

I knew Greenland was logged at NF, as I remember reading it.  Greenland is a toughie to log for being as close to the North American continent.  At 5-20KW, those are not flea power signals either. Alaska is easier to log than Greenland, yet KBRW 680 took a lot work, especially with KNBR blasting away. Maybe 720 might make it my way.

73,

Patrick
