Immediate reply from Rob Bertrand, Technician, at WCBS in New York verifying my reception of WCBS in October 2005 when I heard them with a good signal at home on a modest 70 metre longwire antenna at sunrise. WCBS is heard frequently here, but their signal seldom rivals the signal strength of some of the [...]

One of the many highlights during the February 2006 DX-pedition to Lista was being able to catch the signal of WCCM in Haverhill, Massachusetts, on 1490 kHz. This was possibly the first reception of this station in Norway.
I have sent several e-mails to them in the past, without any success whatsoever. A reception report with [...]

I was very surprised to find a letter from WKXW in Atlantic City, New Jersey, in my mailbox the other day containing 2 stickers. A verification text on one of the stickers was signed by their Chief Engineer Tom McNally. WKXW has now changed their call letters to WENJ and carries the ESPN Sports Network. [...]

After the closure of the 1200 kilowatt mega transmitter at Kvitsøy here in Norway on 1314 kHz, hearing Radio Nacional de Venezuela on 1310 kHz has been dead easy. Radio Nacional de Venezuela is definitely the most commonly heard station on 1310 kHz and has been heard with good signals on all the Lista DX-peditions [...]

Chief Engineer Steven Callahan of WCRN in Worcester, Massachusetts, sent me a very kind letter confirming my reception of the station on the February 2006 DX-pedition at Lista. Back in February 2006, WCRN was heard with a «True Oldies» format but the station has now changed into a talk station.
Steven says WCRN increased their nighttime [...]

Nice e-mail from WMKI in Boston confirming my e-mail report to the station. Although transmitting on 1260 kHz, a frequency also used in Europe, WMKI has a powerful transmitter and is frequently heard in Norway with the rather uninteresting Radio Disney programming. My e-mail came from Jaccalen Grillo-Campagnone, Marketing & Promotions Manager of AM 550 [...]

Radio Sintonía in Caracas, Venezuela, replied with a brief e-mail which I with some doubts count as a QSL. Radio Sintonía was one of my best catches on the November 2006 DX-pedition to Lista when the station could be heard along with the signal of Radio Marabina one night. The signal of Radio Sintonía was [...]

Vida AM Música in Bogotá is quite possibly the most commonly heard AM stations from Colombia at my place. The station is heard very often on 1520 kHz, especially in the winter mornings, but has been a very poor verifier. Today, however, I received an e-mail from Bibiana Amézquita, Asistente Pastoral,of the mother organization Comunidad [...]

Nice e-mail from Randall M. Perry, Assistant Chief Engineer at WKWF in Key West, Florida, who confirms my reception of WKWF “Sportsradio 1600″ on October 23, 2004. This station has been heard several times at Lista. It is not the most common station on 1600 kHz, but does pop up every now and then. Randy [...]

Voice of Nevis broadcasting from Charlestown in St.Kitts-Nevis is one of very few stations from the Caribbean which is still transmitting on a split frequency (895 kHz). Despite using a split frequency and despite calling themselves “The Caribbean’s Power House”, the station is not heard too well or too frequently in Norway. I have heard [...]

Radio Nuevo Tiempo in Lima, Peru, was heard one morning around sunrise in September last year on 1380 kHz. This is a rare logging for me as this is the only time I have ever been able to receive Radio Nuevo Tiempo at my place. Mirtha de Cabrera at the station sent me an [...]

Another good logging from the February 2006 DXpedition to Lista was WCMC in Wildwood, New Jersey. WCMC was one of 4 nostalgia format stations on 1230 kHz heard on this DX-pedition (the others were WSBB in Florida, WHUC in New York and WESX in Massachusetts). Some days ago I received a full data QSL [...]
