      What about Iceland on 207 khz?
      Note: For good MW and LW reception you need a loooong antenna. And a 
long
antenna works fairly directional. I'm living in the middle of Norway, and I 
have at the moment 250 metres of antenna directed towards the North Pole. In 
theory that should give good Alaska Dx. All I've heard up to now is Vancouver 
in Canada and NY both on 1130. I also had an ID that sounded like KALM on 
1120. Does anybody know of a lowpower with that handle??? That was with an 
antenna directed Eastwards..
