On Sunday night 12 March Don Moore invited me to connect my Perseus to a 400' south BOG at his folk's home here in central PA, and we let the SDR's running all night. I'm just now starting to review the recordings, and have found a number of new stations. The beam of the antenna was pointed ~ 180 degrees which meant that Colombia, Venezuela, Cuba and Haiti were in the bore sight, and that's what the recordings have yielded so far (times are between 0400-0430 UTC unless otherwise noted):
Colombia - 690 Radio Recuerdos, 730 Radio Cadena Melodia 0000 UTC, and 760/770 RCN Cuba - usual clowder of Progresso, Rebelde and Reloj stations plus 740 Radio Angula 0000 UTC, 910 Radio Cadena Agramonte, 930 Radio Surco (presumed), 990 Radio Guama, 1000 Radio Granma, 1040 & 1140 Radio Mayabeque 0000 UTC, 1050 Radio Victoria 0000 UTC, 1060 Radio 26 0000 UTC, and 1080 Radio Cadena Habana (pres) 0000 UTC Haiti - 760 presumed Radio Lumiere with FR prayers for Haitian listeners, "à la famille haitienne" and religious music (thanks to Henrik Klemenz on RealDX for assistance in ID'ing this); this is listed as 2 kW in my 2010 WRTH US - 580 WKAQ and 680 WAPA San Juan, PR Venezuela - unID YV's on 720, 740, and 1080 (with national anthems at 0430 UTC) plus 770 Radio Nacional (with anthem), 780 Radio Coro, 880 Radio Paraguana, tentative 900 Radio Venezuela (with many mentions of Venezuela over Progresso), and 910 presumed Radio Q 910 (with anthem) Audio clips are up at http://www.personal.psu.edu/bds2/audio/zion2012/ and logs will be periodically updated at http://www.radiodxing.com/zion2012/zion2012.html Brett Saylor N3EVB-State College PA USA Perseus SDR _______________________________________________ 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
