Default Re: Long-wave stations (historic)

Its interesting that the only LW stations I get from Europe here in
the central USA are the BBC on 198 and Ireland and Algeria on 252,
seldom interfering with one another. And only in winter and only sometimes.

I have no idea why only those, my only guess is that the transmitters
happen to have a side lobe aimed my way.

We of course never had long term LW broadcasting. I do very reliably
get beacons from all over the USA and CA.
