I think often the RX end is the problem on LF/MF. For those in a noisy
environment a move to a better QTH might be worth considering.
Property prices at present seem reasonable for small farms or small holdings
of several acres, ideal for LF/MF.

Not to mention the 3 mile Beverage antenna starting at the beach from 052
deg. true and coming right by the house...
Guess I got lucky on that one...
Also not putting half of my power into the ground ( radials ) helps a
bunch
too...
Still, we can't work em if we can't hear them...

AA1A is right on the Atlantic Ocean, you will need to beef up your
signal so that it penetrates more than a couple of miles inland...

AA1A copies me solid every time I work on 500 Khz and we have had some
xband
QSO'S. I have also had a QSO with Jay.
I also get good reports on 137 Khz. from the USA and had several QSO'S
on
that band with the USA.
NC1K often copied me at 579 on 137 Khz over the years. Unfortunately
Merv
has now departed.

Bob has had QSO's with some of the stronger stations (like Finbar) but
apparently he can't hear you.
