That is correct.  European LW broadcast stations are almost never heard in 
California, and even the Experimental Service licensees on 166kHz don't put much 
signal strength out there, so Ed Gelinas has a relatively signal-free 
environment for covering his neighborhood.  He has only operated it with amplitude 
modulation so far, but is considering operating it as a conventional Morse 
beacon during his "non-broadcast" hours later this year.
