Agreed, good conditions right now! I've been playing in the ham bands lately but today I've got the Icom R71E rocking (that I bought from China on ebay) and MAY have heard Yemen on 17,770khz this afternoon.
This evening, 60 meters is cooking with these before 0500z: 4960khz VOA Sao Tome, 4930khz VOA Botswana both at S9, good. Radio Clube, Brazil is S9+ on 4885khz (audible every night, but not this good), and now listening to Radio Verdad, Guatemala on 4055khz at S7, Good in English. Recording Verdad for a good ident at 0600z (I hope!).
Love this R71E. Perfect for AM shortwave listening
