[IRCA] Announcing the 950 DX Challenge

["Chernos Saul" <sauldx@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Niel Wolfish in Toronto has been trying to pin down a station on 950 he has 
heard just prior to 0600 EST every morning where a woman sings the SSB 
starting around 0558 EST and then the station fades into the mud by the time 
an ID might happen. I thought I heard a wee bit of this here at Burnt River 
ON this morning. Saturday morning it was solid WWJ MI and WIBX NY so I am 
tentatively ruling them out. This morning I had WROC NY separately (with 
ESPN) and am tentatively ruling them out. Possible candidates include 
stations in OH (Niel deems this most likely) and WV. But who knows...

And that's the basis of this little DX game. For those of you who like a 
good mystery, or have reliable 950s to listen to, why not sit on the channel 
from 0555-0601 EST, log what you can, and report it. Who knows. Barry 
McLarnon in Ottawa did this a week or so ago and logged a new station - one 
in MN, nice and far away! Funny enough, this one doesn't appear to be our 
candidate, either.

So set your alarms, pour some coffee, and join us as we take on this DX 
Challenge!
