Re: [AMRadio] Left Coast AM?
I usually have the reciever on 40M at that time period. I will start parking it on 3870 in the later evening. At least my antenna is right for that path.

Re: [AMRadio] Left Coast AM?
But what time should I be looking on any of these frequencies. When I moved to this locatin in 2003 I was able to hear the PNW AM group on 3870. But now they are down in the noise. I used to check 14.284 in the early evening (between 4PM and 5PM PST). Again I use to hear them a few years ago but I have not heard them in over 2 years. I was tols one to check 7290 at noon on saturdays. I tried that and no luck. I received a note from a ham in Alaska that told me the farther north you go the worse things get. On 80M I do receive the PNW RTTY net most night on 3595. What I am receiving seems to be ground wave. That's what I would expect right now. The PNW AM locals (Seattle) are located north of me and over some high hills. I suspect that I am off the end of their antennas. My antenna currently runs east to west. So my best path is N/S.

Plenty, 3870, 3880, 1925, 1885, 7,293, 7,140, 14,286. Daily AM activity from all 11 western states AM community a total of 183 check ins the last two months..

Is there any real West Coast AM activity besides the PNW AM group that operates on 3870 in the early evening? Is there any West Coast AM activity on 40M? Recent ly I have been hearing SSB activity on 14.286 during the time period that the the AM group used to operate. Or is the problem just the dead bands due to the solar cycle?
