The stuff on frequencies ending in zero is covered by levels of interference undreamed of in the 20th century. No more splits in this hemisphere. I don't blame you guys with the fancy equipment for going after the Trans-oceanic stuff as you do. It's about all that's left.

Obviously the designers and builders of the FSL antennas have done a
remarkable job in pursuing the elusive "trans oceanic" stations using these
unique antenna and ULR radios. The creativity, testing and research that
that has been conducted by Gary and others is commendable.
At times it seems like the IRCA list has few posters with interest in North
American domestic medium wave dxing. I think there are many of us out
there who maybe have little personal interest in Asian and European MW Dx
stations and wish that similar antenna research efforts were also being
directed toward improving domestic Dx abilities.
In no way am I being critical of the efforts toward improving trans-oceanic
DX or of those avidly following those developments. Perhaps I am just
envious of the results and wish for similar progress using smaller antennas
and radios for domestic DX!!
