I don't believe mainland China has been heard in that region since the early
50's, and that on a totally clear channel.

The possibilities for 650 would be some local station running programming
for a Chinese community in North America. There is a station near Richmond,
VA, with major power, but daytime. A low power station in MA, and then a 250
watter in Houston are the North American stations... so nothing licensed to
650 seems likely. Any chance you have some receiver issues?

Dont think so David, Switched over to several other rigs and same
results....WSM came back in strong and is already fading back to
chinese...strange stuff!

Issues? You mean like you have? Like being a pathological liar, and a faux
Hispanic to boot?

Quite the combination.
