...... on the Realistic DX-160. 

Picked up my DX-160 with operating guide a couple years ago at a quarterly swap at The Vintage Radio & Communications Museum of Connecticut (I remember you said you visited.)

Yes, the museum was really good. My son is a Air Force Radio tech and loved the place . We had a guided tour. So much stuff and info about it. Haven't been to the swaps though.
I bought my DX 160 about 4 years ago. It's had a lot of mods, digital frequency counter, recapped and a few other things. Surprising how well it works. Lots of fun.

Interesting experiments with the modes and antennas BSR.
You got a good thing going only I wish you would get away from the Wolverine Radio "Theme" thing and come up with your own style.
But good job with your station, stick with AM!
