When I travel, I always bring along a weather radio. And through the years I've been fortunate enough to be in the right place at the right time and hear distant signals on the 162 MHz weather band
Below are links to various locations where I've heard enough stations to merit listing them all. Any DX done within a 25-mile radius of the listed city is eligible for inclusion in the log. All mileages are calculated as distances from the listed city. Furthest logged is distance in miles.
