I had Celestial,and what I think was the SS pirate I heard the other night, dueling it out on 1710 that night.

The SS pirate seems to be dead south of me. Celestial is more ENE and the Jersey TIS NNE. Of course,this is an educated guess made from using a small AM loop at a time when skywave dominates.
