Re: [IRCA] [NRC-AM] AM DX from central Alaska

Yes, Japanese as well as Koreans were all over the dial there. As far North as you are you should see plenty of TA activity in the Winter too. I got several during the day in the Winter in Seward with a portable and a longwire.

I think you should have a pretty good shot at the Japanese there Paul, as long as you don't mind getting up a bit before local dawn.

Hi Paul,
 
Your dial sounds a bit like the stuff I used to hear pretty regular
when I lived in Seward in the 60s.
It has been years since I have even heard KLAM mentioned. They were a
regular in Seward. In those days the station operated from 7:30-9:30
AM and again from 5-10 PM. I QSL's KSDP quite a few years ago here. I
even phoned the station and also the own at home. An interesting
station.
 
Patrick
