Title: KBGG 1700 AM 0550 UTC 22 Dec 2019

Heard this sports talk station out of Des Moines, Iowa, playing a sports talk show, followed by CBS Sports update on the hour, then a message from a troop to his family based in Iowa before going to new hour of a sports talk show. This was staying on top of the frequency with little sign of XEPE.

This one's listed as 1,000 watts at night; about 1,457 miles southeast of me. My wife bought me a Tecsun AM loop antenna for my birthday, and it turns out it really makes a difference for mediumwave DXing!

Looks like that loop is bringing you some nice DX.   8)
