Re: [HCDX] HELP: "AMC-8" 1540 heard in CT
Konnie -
A station that is regularly received on 1540 kHz. at my QTH that is not far from yours is CHIN Toronto, once WCDC, Albany NY (an evangelical Christian station) signs off, usually around 10pm local (0300 UT). CHIN relays China Radio International during the evening and overnight hours in English and Chinese. As Glenn stated, the station probably lost its satellite feed for a time on the nights you mentioned.
