The signal quality is fine, but not a barn burner in signal strength,
at least on the left coast. I generally listen to the Pearl Harbor
feeds. The bandwidth (to my ears) is wide enough that I use my 4KHZ
filter, rather than the narrower 2.4Khz filter.

My recollection is when they started to put AFN back on shortwave, it
was for the US Navy. The other services use satellites.

The 5765 frequency is an odd one to pick since it is used by WWCR.

This is one of my primary reasons for wanting a good radio that can
pick up SSB

Is this page still accurate? Has anyone in the USA ever heard these
broadcasts and can report back on the signal quality?

Thanks!
