0.11 ** WCGA-AM 1100 Woodbine, GA - Barely audible under WTAM with sweep tones, Morse code, and some 1 kHz tones. Couldn't shake the CLE station, but was able to hear the sounds. New catch!
ALSO: WCCO-830 MSP was off the air. Had two stations clashing weakly; one was SS (Most likely the Norco, LA pest.) The other I was unable to figure out; it would only show up in short bursts, and audible lightning crashes intensifying as an overnight thunderstorm moved in helped put an end to my search.

MARCH 3RD logs reported:
TPK-WI, Tom Kirk, Milwaukee, WI CST
RFSpace Cloud-IQ sdr w/ a 2 wire, 160 foot phased system
684 SPAIN, Sevilla 3/3/22 0520 to 0830 UTC. A carrier on 683.9992 that was running mostly 20-30 dBs o/ the sideband noise level. A persistent signal that was still @ 20 dBs over @ 0753, 1 hour past its sunrise of 0653 UTC. Faded and gone for good by 0830 UTC. MWList's latest frequency post (2/6/22) is 683.9990. Spain is the only station listed on 684 that could be coming in this late. TPK-WI
684 TUNISIA, Medenine 3/3/22 0520 to 0611 UTC. A signal on 683.9997 that was hanging in just above the 680-690 sideband level. The vertical waterfall line for this station was widened and smeared. The signal peaked @ 0556 UTC about 20 dBs over then faded and was gone by 0611 UTC. MWList's latest post(2/6/22) is 984.0001. Medenine's sunrise time was 0544 UTC. TPK-WI
684 unID TA 3/3/22 0520 to 0618 UTC. A weak, steady carrier in the sideband noise that had one peak to 10 dBs over the noise. Faded and gone by 0618 UTC. Possibly the Damaturu, Nigeria station with a 0526 sunrise. The frequency measured was 684.0025 but MWList has no frequency postings for this station. This carrier was seen running hours before 0500 UTC several nights ago. MWList has the Nigerian starting @ 0500 UTC. Maybe Damaturu runs an OC during its early AM hours before coming on air. Another unsolved mystery. TPK-WI
1170 unID 3/2 2230 to 2315 CST. Poor and steady. Someone was running an OC which was just slightly stronger than anyone else most of the time. Not WWVA, KFOW-MN, or KBOB-IA. Maybe WFDL-WI? TPK-WI

MARCH 1ST logs reported:
DX Tuesday
Heard on the XDR-S10HDiP in Carleton MI on Tuesday 1 March 2022. Times EST.
18.36 ** WMAN-AM 1400 Mansfield, OH - Poor with local ads, 'High School Basketball on News Radio, WMAN' into game, and out.
18.59 ** KWKH-AM 1130 Shreveport, LA - Very poor in WDFN null with sports, '1130 The Tiger.'
19.02 ** WLBA-AM 1130 Gainesville, GA - Very poor under WDFN/KWKH with SS mx, TOH ID, // WAOS-1600, and // Webcast! New catch!
Also had found a small null in WWJ's signal (Thanks, HD!) and something kept poking in...but it kept fading out at the worst times. That one got away, but I think it was either KWOS or WXLW. Either one would be a relog. Couldn't get around the HD sidebands on the adjacent channels, though.
