--- I gather you'all know Poro isn't on 1143 or 1147.5kHz any more? It's now on 1170 and been there for a couple of years or more. Besides that, assuming that the path via which you might hear stuff from Poro is over the Pacific Ocean, then one reason you're not hearing it is that it beams either due west [262 degrees] or nearly due north [332 degrees]. Neither of those is going to shove much in your direction and I'm not convinced that the 332 degree beam actually 'works' anyway. bw --- Bill Whitacre [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com
