DX receive on IC-718 with EF wire antenna

I'm slowly making progress with the quality of my station's send and receive audio quality.  Here is an example of the receive, but admittedly, conditions were surprisingly good the other night on 40m...  I ended up recording a little DX.  I didn't end up attempting to break in as it turned out to be part of a DX NET but the clarity of the reception was impressive!

Cheers and 73,
