I've seen similar maps for Canada. The east side of the Rockies in Alberta is supposed to be superb for MW DX, and it has been proposed that this is due to the excellent ground conductivity. Interesting thread, indeed!Walt On Wed, Aug 8, 2012 at 12:09 PM, Craig Healy wrote: > An importa

This is getting more and more interesting! Thank you Gary and Bill for the recent cliffside DXing results, and Nick for sleuthing out the limited technical papers on this topic. Some years ago during an annual family vacation to Yachats, Oregon, I was parked at that exact spot of Gary's wonderful

Re: [IRCA] Recent DXpedition to Grayland, WA & Florence, OR

An important aspect of losing signal when going away from the shore is the ground conductivity in that area. That makes a significant coverage change for any identical station by frequency, power and antenna. Local stations like 1230, etc., cover far better in the middle of the US than in plac

Re: [IRCA] Recent DXpedition to Grayland, WA & Florence, OR

That's almost what I blurted out in my original email -- what Gary [and others' research to understand it] may have stumbled upon is the true nature of 'sea gain' or 'coastal effect' and that it falls off REALLY rapidly away from the coast whether you're at sea level or elevated. A few years ago

Re: [IRCA] Recent DXpedition to Grayland, WA & Florence, OR

Thanks for the reports on that Bill. Have to keep Grayland in mind when/if we get out that way again. Has anyone done a DXpedition near the North American Pole of Inaccessibility ? Since I've had to cancel both DX trips for
