Jim Renfrew, Holley NY
0001-0004 edt Morse code through heavy QRM, mostly from "WENY"
(WENI) south of here.
0006 lower toned morse code
0007 more morse code
Going back over my code transcribing, I have
"WKAL AM 1450 Rome" but I'm missing a lot due to QRM
Thanks for the test. A relog here.

I'm in Toronto tonight, where I actually need the station. But of course
this weekend is the only time I was able to take the car in for some brake
work etc needed in time to use it this week to get up to Burnt River for
the E-skip season (which has started on FM, BTW). So the only radio I have
is a car radio adapted for indoor use for FM, which I have here for FM.
I've never DXed AM on it. So will see how I fare. 1430 local is a mile
away - we'll see...
