MW DX: CFRB Newstalk 1010 Toronto 1010 kHz, copied in Oxford UK

Hi there, here's another transatlantic MW DX catch on the wonderful Icom IC-R75. Newstalk 1010 Toronto is often one of the strongest transatlantic signals, but nearly always suffers from adjacent channel QRM. This is often fairly straight forward to mitigate with an SDR, more difficult with a traditional rig, but the Icom in SSB with passband delivers a better result than just about any of my other non-SDR receivers.

Recorded in Oxford UK on 04/03/18 at
01:42 hrs using a Wellbrook ALA1530 magnetic loop antenna outdoors. Thanks for watching.
