It's been heard in Newfoundland, though I recall that it came during an
aurora that completely wiped put all of Europe except for weak signals
from Spain. What we discovered was that there appeared to be very few
signals on the air at all from Africa. Tanzania was one of them.
There have been a few occasions when we found France off the air allowing
us to hear Ukraine and China, also a low power Brit. Maybe Iran, too, but
I don't have my records at hand.
