Last night around 11:15pm I parked on 1548khz after hearing a couple of women talking on that freq, one of them sounding American. At 11:29pm I heard a Voice of Russia ID plus email address and web url.

You don't get IDs on TAs very often, so this one was a gift. This one is Gregoriopol Moldavia, heard a few weeks earlier but with no real ID. Now I have one!

Moldavia is east of Romania.

BTW...I have a Kenwood R2000, Quantum phaser and two longwires, one SW-NE and the other mostly W-E, connected to coax on their E ends.

That's a fantastic clip!

Very motivating. As the leaves are falling, I'm getting my EWE's back up. Spent the afternoon building some matching transformers and yesterday I modified my preselector so it has a higher Q, hopefully allowing me to peak on those oddball channels.

It's a little tougher here in the midwest, but I know it can be done. I've been throwing away signal strength by ignoring impedance mismatches in the past. No more!
