Hi Bill,
 
     TA reception here in western WA and western  BC seems to be more 
dependent upon excellent Trans-Arctic propagation  than using the best equipment, 
although a good receiver and antenna  certainly will improve your chances 
of success. 
 
     The local Ultralight radio group has enjoyed  several barefoot pocket 
radio receptions of stations like 1134-Croatia (before  the schedule change) 
and 1215-Absolute in previous years, shortly after hometown  buddy Guy 
Atkins' "First West Coast ULR-TA" reception of 1575-Radio  Farda on a $25 Sony 
SRF-39FP "Prison Radio" in Grayland during a November  2008 DXpedition. When 
TA conditions are great in this local area, almost  any decent portable can 
receive a TA "big gun."

,Michael, I don't think R.Maria was playing Neil Young or The  Doors as 
their format is of the Religious variety so your finding of the  splatter from 
C-ILS was correct,but I am glad that the Dutch station is  reaching the west 
coast and wish I had the capability to get them or any Dutch  station 
myself but I don't have the time or the equipment to capture them for  the few 
minutes that they drop in.Bill in  BC
