Hey Kris,
Freebanding in Russia right now may be a risky prospect.
Even if one does not talk about the war.
I hope they are out in a deep rural area and mobile.
But a possible “ foot print” left by a specific radio may eventually let them find you, IF they are looking that hard.

Hey Erik,
I heard the Poacher back in the stone age. The calliope music kind of reminded me of a circus that would have evil clowns .
Headphones off , head under pillow

Hey Erik,
Nice catch.
I had a pair of Iowa stations I wanted to log this winter : KXEL and KCJJ.
I copied KCJJ "good" ("at times") last night.
KXEL may be more problematic here. I am working on a new home brew loop that (in initial mock up tests) seems to have a fair amount more kick than the Select-A-Tenna.I may wait for it to be fully ready before I go for KXEL (outside, in the RF quiet dog park). 'XEL may need all the help it can get.
We ("probably") still have around 2 months (or more) before increasing daylight begins to very gradually shift the band toward Spring conditions . Hopefully the Solar cycle will also pep up a bit more before Spring as well .
"One down , one to go ".

Hey All,
'HAS can be copied here on Select-A -Tenna , ("at times"), despite MONSTER local WEEI on 850. Not easy, but not rare either.

Hey Erik,
Zoomer can be a tough catch with line of sight local Co channel WJIB also on 740.
But IF the signal is good and everything is exactly (EXACTLY !) positioned (radio AND loop to within 1/8 " to 1/4 " !!), it can be copied here."At times".

Hey Treehouse,
CMLA /R. Prgesresso is one of my favorite Dx targets here .It shows up ( "at times") fair or better in my apt on Select- A Tenna. Usually weak though.
The competition here on 640 is regional WNNZ, but it's not a problem too often .
Also a few months back I FINALLY heard 640 CBN Newfoundland- a station I've been trying to copy for over 50 years !
I vacation each year on Cuttyhunk Island in Buzzard's Bay , MA . MANY Cubans easily copied there , even in Summer. CMLA bombs in all the time down there. All kind of other long dx as well.
640 is a GREAT frequency to Dx , no matter where you are.
Most of my "serious" Dxing is done below 900 Kc .
FWIW , a new larger home brew bedside loop is around 75% done. 4 gang ceramic var cap, ball drive, etc.
