9 kHz AM frequency of the week - 765 kHz

[Buckeyes2001]

For those of you who are in the 9 kHz spacing allocations for AM or have happened to DX something on 765 kHz, what can you get on this frequency?

I'll bite. Occasionally I could hear Switzerland on 765 before RSR Option Musique left the air. Here's a recording I made of RSR's sign-off loop message. This was coming in fairly clear for a few nights right before the transmitter left the air.

765 Khz RSR Switzerland 13DE10 0344 UTC.mp3

Since that time (Dec. 2010), I don't think I've heard any other trans-atlantics on 765.

765 KHz from Kandahar, Afghanistan
Daytime- the Iran foreign service station does not operate around the clock. Listed at 600 KW. Seems to change DA patterns depending on language used. Very weak summer days, fair winter days, Killer nights. @ 525 miles.
Evenings-Iran when on, and AIR South, India, also on a sporadic schedule. 200 KW @ 1260 miles.

Perth, Australia - days, nothing. Nights, mostly 5CC from Port Lincoln South Australia. There is a hash underneath, with occasional Chinese, probably the CNR aimed at Taiwan, but have not ID'ed anything else yet.

In the northeastern US, it's mixed sideband hash from WJR (760) Detroit and WABC (770) New York.
