I am sure Mexico radio stns were within range after dark
but I listened to the Honolulu stns.
In those days I was a Globe Trotter seeking rare DX
locations. I took advantage of facilities available at the various locations.to
operate amateur radio. I used Aircraft, Ships and Fixed transmitters besides
having my own portable equipment when possible to carry with me.
I had a certain amount of Influence to achieve my
objectives !!

Hi Mal
Very intersting
Did you hear any of the Border Blaster X stations out of Mexico,
quarter megawatt plus AM MW Broadcasters with massive antennas haloed with a corona that could be seen right across the
border into Texas, pumping out Jazz, Rythm n Blues and Rock n Roll to the
Pacific GIs, Wolfman Jack et al? Think they did more for the Ionosphere
than the H-Bomb. They reckon they made it out to Hawaii at night. Amazing
range which upset the US gov.
