I chased a weak AM signal, playing techno music and just barely audible on several kiwis. It was JBA on Denton Hill, MI as well as many east coast kiwis, and also a couple in the midwest. I did manage to catch an OM saying "dot com" and a few "hello" and barely audible techno. I never did manage to find a signal any better.

I figured I'd post this in case the OP runs across it, so they know the signal was *really* struggling.

FWIW, I checked my SDR recording for that night, and had nothing here.
