Hello Brendan
I don't have BC breakthrough here, but I do have a number of BC transmitters
nearby, here on the edge of San Francisco Bay.
I build my own preamplifiers with bandpass filters for 160m.  I use them
with
my full size Flag receiving loop.  They would also be appropriate for the
K9AY loop.
You might put together a simple two stage bandpass filter and try that in
the receive feedline to see if it gets rid of the BC signals.

One other thought.  If you have a signal generator, you might try slowly
sweeping it across 160m to see if it beats with those signals.  It might
help determine what frequencies they are really on.
Good luck and 73
Bob N6WG
