For those who like to listen. You can learn a lot by listening. This site you can post your detected spots. For example, last night I left my receiver on 1710 and lo and behold....

no internet.

Altho I go outside and get bits and pieces

on my phone.

Anyway...

A fantastic resource.  There are also running

reception lists (like the AM BCB one) for the

FM BCB and the ham bands.  (6 and 10 meters

are a lot of fun to watch.)

So the night before last here in Hartford I was

hearing a strong  1 kHz hetrodyne on 1520 kHz against

WWKB in Buffalo (sp?) NY.  East coast U.S. DXers

will know that this is from 1521 kHz in Saudi Arabia.  The

1521 in Saudi Arabia runs a million watts - maybe more. 

For years I have tried to hear talking or music from this

station.  This week I thought I heard a little bit of talking

and music.  But for only a fraction of a second here and

there - so I can't be sure.  This has happened before. 

The receiver was the mighty Tecsun PL-380.  I just don't

know.  If I had "rolled tape" I might have been able to check -

but I was moving the radio around all over the place to try

to null WWKB.

My notes say I heard audio from this 1521 5 or 10 years ago

- however - I am still not really convinced as I look back.

With a software defined receiver and a a beverage it would

be too easy.  

Very Best Wishes,

Bruce, CBJB, and all the MicroDog Part 15 stations

from the past. 

P.S.  I am having major problems with the internet.  I'm sorry

for any typos or if this message is not written clearly.  I

will not be abble to proofread it.

I looked on the AM DX log list but didn't spot the 1710 "lo and behold" mentioned by John WDCX.

What, pray tell, did John behold?
