I live in Vancouver, Washington and I enjoy mediumwave and shortwave.
My favorite mediumwave stations are 1190 KEX and 910 KTRO. My favorite
shortwave stations are Radio Australia and the BBC.

Welcome. I live in the SE coast of the US. If you get the chance, we
(okay well me) would like to see some of your DX logs from that area.
How does 3145/3185/3215 come in around that area???? What kind of
radio do you use?

The only time I get Radio Australia in with any sort of good reception
is in the early AM like 0800 utc... and as summer is coming here, it
probably will totally disappear from the east coast of the US.

Again, welcome to rec.radio.shortwave, we need some good posters here.

I can get Komo One Thousand (KOMO) here most evenings.

KEX and KTRO aren't much of a DX challenge from Vancouver. You want a
challenge some time, try to dx KOMA (or whatever they are called these days)
out of Oklahoma City under 1520 in Clackamas. As a more or less lifelong
Portlander, I enjoyed DX'ing a lot of southern US and Mexican stations,
along with most anything you want in western Canada. I have picked up WWL
in New Orleans from my driveway in SE Portland.. May not be so easy to get
some of them anymore, with IBOC running on so many stations.

Hi,

I live in Rochester, NY and I enjoy MW. My favorite radio stations
are the ones I haven't logged yet. I drove an old beater truck around
in November and collected a few hundred stations. I figured out that

I wonder if you have logged WSM 650 from the northwest. They have a
great looking antanna tower down there and always put a good signal
into Rochester.

I've yet to hear WSM north of Utah. I believe, though I haven't done the map
work, that WWL is the furthest station I have received on a stock radio,
though KMOX in St. Louis and KSTP in Minneapolis/St. Paul may be further
from Portland. I've copied lots of border blasters from there, along with
many Texas and Oklahoma stations, plus KTNN in Window Rock, AZ, a bunch of
Canadians in BC, Alberta and Saskatchewan, stations in Butte, Billings,
Helena, and Great Falls, MT, Casper, WY, Denver, CO, Salt Lake City, UT,
Reno and Las Vegas, NV, Sacramento, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Fresno and
Chico, CA (most of these last are nightly catches). Daytime "DX" has been
heard from Boise, ID (about 400 miles- then KFXD-580), Richland, WA (about
300 miles) and "local" from Seattle, Tacoma, Olympia, Vancouver, BC, and
Roseburg and Medford, OR (about 200 miles).
