There is also the Audiovox IHD-P01A, sometimes available at Walmart.
It is nearly identical to the Insignia receiver.

It was a morning made for SDRs. The first hour or so of listening
was accounted for with 3 minutes of scanning; things were a little
more interesting after 1508UT, when HLAZ started to fade up, and a
little bit of a buzz happened on the upper band.

1370 WSHV South Hill VA noted for the second time in a week after sunset
with a strong signal. tonight at 9:30 PM, with Christmas music format and
ID as 1370 and 96.7. I suspect that it is NOT using 41 watts. The
Christmas format may be helpful in finding it.

740, 900, 1110, and 1570 are pretty common here. I would guess KEWE must be off

No Alaskans heard by me here in Orange County CA. The closest I get is the

Hi Chris,
After years of hearing virtually no Alaskans, they became rather
more common at the bottom of the solar cycle in 2007-2009.I've
logged 18, pretty much all in that time period. Since then they've
reverted to being pretty uncommon. I think KINY is the only one I've
heard this

The only Hawaiian I have logged is KHLT-1040. KCBS makes Kihei impossible. 670
is a mess; mostly Simi Valley and a little KBOI.
740 Kihei and KUAU-1570 are triplexed with the KMVI-900 tower, which I went to
on my honeymoon in 2001. At that time KAOI-1110 was diplexed and KUAU was dark.

Dennis,
I think when South Pacific conditions are really good and KEWE is at 5 KW ND, I
will hear it, as 740 Kihei is pretty regular mixing or on top of KCBS. The
easiest Hawaiian these days, no matter what night is KPUA 670. I can generally
always hear them.

Theo,
I got Tauranga 1000 also QSL'd back in the 60s, but from down here. For some
reason I never logged NZ from AK, but plenty of Australians. As you know, I

Nick,
I had a 2,000 foot beverage for years running N/NNW, until they put a road in.
I logged both Whitehorse stations then along with 250w Fort Nelson BC on 590,
all during daylight in the Winter mornings, but CFPR is just too much of a
powerhouse here. Again, cx have to be exceptionally well
Back in the 60s, 1340 was heard fairly often, but during the day in the Winter
as there was little QRM. 860 CHAK was a regular too. One I would love to hear
in Oregon, but never have. CFPR is too strong. I do have both QSL'd from AK.

Pat is correct. I did hear Yellowknife on 1340 many times. Unfortunately it
moved to FM in March of this year. I have never logged CHAK-860. Alaskans
haven't been as common this winter as other years, tho a few have made it
through with KINY the most common.

I visited Ric Heald in Sitka, AK over Christmas/New Year 67/68 and
CFYK/1340 (possibly only 250w at the time?) was heard... as was the then
NZBC's 1ZD/1000 in Tauranga/now RNZ National on 1008... both verified.
Ric's apt was in a converted house in the middle of Downtown... can't
recall his

I've always wondered about a winter daytime Beverage looking at
Inuvik Patrick. Do you think you could persuade the cows to your
north to stand aside for awhile, take a Christmas vacation maybe?

On the other hand, Mike, "YMMV" applies. Looking toward Alaska from
North-Central Minnesota it's tough to get by the Canadians on practically
every channel of interest :-))
