A PICKED MW DX STATION FROM MY DX-PEDTION LOG ON SEP.10 IN 2016

    Let me introduce a picked MW DX station from my TP (Trans Pacific )DX-pedition log on Sep.10 in 2016. I could receive KFAB in Omaha of Nebraska in the U.S. on 1110 kHz at 18:00 JST. The reception point was a sea side of Iwate prefecture. We used a 20m TDDF antenna.
The propagation path length is about 9400 km.

    This station has been received sometimes by other Japanese DXers too.  I 'm very glad to get this station ID because this MW station is the most inland American MW station for me in this year.
In this video, you can hear "This is news radio ..10 KFAB Omaha.". You can see its transmitting antenna here and its office here. 

 This is a compilation of KFAB's Jingles. 

MW STATION MAP OF U.S & CANADA & MEXICO

   I am evaluating Google Map for my MW DXing. This is a MW station map of U.S. and Canada and Mexico. The stations with tx power more than 0.99kW  for night transmission are shown in this map. I would like to add a search window to point the station by its call sign. But I haven't found the solution yet.   

MW DX LOG IN KAWASAKI ON OCT.24 2016

　　The condition was not so good.  I could hear some regular big gun stations in Kawasaki from 2:00 a.m. to 3:00 a.m of JST.

 Bangladesh Betar on 693 kHz 1000kW
 BBC World Service on 1413 kHz (Oman) 800kW
 ABC 4QD on 1548kHz (Emerald QLD, Australia） 50kW

* These links are clickable to see the location of transmitting antenna on Google map.

    ABC 4QD on 1548kHz was not so strong even though the signal becomes usually strong from Oct.  I enjoyed a ethnic song like Quaran on Bangradesh Betar with deep fading for short time. I would very appreciate if anybody translate the song in English because I couldn't understand the lyrics of song.

DISTRIBUTION MAP OF MW STATIONS HEARD IN THE MW DX PEDITION IN CHIBA ON SEP.22 2016

    Fig1.shows a night area at 19:00 JST on Sep.22 2016 when we caught a lot of MW stations from north America. The propagation was achieved by skywaves in the night area

Figure 1 The night area at 19:00 JST on Sep.22 2016.

    Fig.2 shows the distribution of MW stations of north America that I digged in the DX pedition. Most of the stations are located in the west coast. There are some inland MW stations too. I'm satisfied with this result of this DX pedition but I would like to dig more inland MW stations in the next challenge.
