My worst AM DXing event: Listening for almost an hour in Chicago to a weak station that was coming in and out, after hearing unfamiliar call letters (not listed in the Communications World guide for that frequency at the time), then figuring out eventually that they announced the sister FM call sign for KOIA in Iowa, only one state away.

My best AM DXing event: After moving to the San Francisco, California area in 1984, using my new Sony multi-band radio and hearing WLS from Chicago on 890, almost 2000 miles away.
