Long Distance MW propagation in SE USA during daylight

<< < (2/2)

legis225:
In north Florida I get the DX rolling in starting at 2:30 to 3 pm local time.  WBT 1110 comes in strong with lesser station underneath.

BoomboxDX:
Sounds like daylight DX. It happens most Winters. Six or seven years ago I heard a station 800 miles away (CBK 540) at 1 p.m., coming in at around S3 on a portable radio.

The last couple years have been spotty, though. Where I live, usually the MW band DX fades out around 7-8 a.m. Sometimes after that there is nothing but static on DX channels.

On good DX seasons it will fade around 10-11 a.m. or so -- usually that's when the strong regionals disappear.

Pigmeat:
I noticed the background noise on MW was about S-2 yesterday afternoon. Storm and tornado season is on to the south and west.
