MW/AM DXing forums?
« on: December 08, 2020, 02:30:15 PM »

Can anyone point me to their favourite MW/AM broadcast DXing forum? Just getting back into this and am looking for a busy forum. I plan to do a lot of MW Dxing next summer while camping and on Cape Cod.

Thanks

Radio Discussions (a radio discussion site) has a DXers forum. There's also a FB group called "I Love AM Radio" where a lot of DXers hang out.

There aren't too many MW DX sites left. One MW DX site closed itself down a few years ago, and it had a pretty good database of North American stations and useful links. And, we all know that the Yahoo eGroups, which had several forums dedicated to MW DXing, are no more.

For posting catches and logs, the BCB Logger site is busy most nights, and it has some useful links beneath the MW DX listings.

AM dx signals seem to be stronger during the winter months. Summer months can be quiet, or a signal will come in, then fade.

Past few weeks I've been consistently listening to WCBS 880 NYC every morning, from Chicago.

Using a Panasonic RF-2400d, ordered from Amazon.

Thank you all for the links. The BCB prop logger is very cool. Have not see that before.
