[IRCA] New to list



New to list, joined last week, but have been DXing for awhile (like about 50 years).

Tried something new this winter: AM DXing from the car while driving to work. My daily 35-minute commute is around dawn local time, so the band can be very interesting. I use the stock radio and antenna in my 2007 Subaru Outback Sport and my iPhone to record what I monitor with me annotating the times and frequencies by voice.

I suspected conditions were good this morning when the first thing I heard was a French language station (I assume Canadian) interfering with local WPOP on 1410. So I slid up the band, parked on 1440 for the ride to work, and logged two new ones: WCDL and WJJL.

Sports talk station WCDL is located in Carbondale, Pennsylvania, transmitting 37 watts, 134 miles to my west. Oldies station WJJL is in Niagara Falls, New York, transmitting 55 watts, 334 to my north-northwest. During my commute, the two stations took turns dominating 1440.
