Actually it is broadcast in AM mode, its just got the LSB mode mainly suppressed.

I know it can be received in the USA, mainly the west coast or in Alaska. However it was once noted on an East Coast receiver and I have personally heard it over a skype/rx patch down in Aus!

I'm sure it is mainly in certain times of the year, though

Well Chris I don't a huge antenna like you- just a Grundig 750. So I'll probably never catch it.
