[IRCA] TP DX in Seattle on Nov 27

Once again, I set the SDR to record 1255 to 1540 UTC. I should probably adjust the end time, judging from what the guys in Victoria reported today. There was no sign of any TPs just before the SDR kicked off, so they must've been stopped at the border. Nonetheless, the recording showed an

[IRCA] AM BCB DX….ELAD Captures - 2 NEW Stations Heard

Hi Guys: Not much time to review Recordings the past few days, but I did manage to find a couple of New Stations buried in the Mire!! Both are 1 kW Station Local Stations with one being a Graveyarder. The A and K Indexes have remained Low throughout this listening period. Wellbrook has

[IRCA] BBN AM 1280 & BBC AM 1160 Bermuda

Defontes Broadcasting in Hamilton, Bermuda ceased operations about 2 months ago. The TV station went off air a year ago but continued newscasts online via youtube. Their radio stations ceased operations September 1st, 2015 so I would assume this means the AM stations which ran British

[IRCA] TP 27 Nov Victoria version

I wasn't recording earlier when Bruce heard TP's but HLAZ delivered quite a strong signal at 1159 and 1459UT, though not much else was even hinting at audio. pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly): 1566 HLAZ woman and man in Chinese

[IRCA] Alberta TPs for 27 November 2015

Same three at the top end with audio as the past couple of days, 1566 Korea, 1575 VOA, and 1593 CNR1. Today they were joined by a couple from the low end, as 594 and 693 from Japan came aboard with poor to fair audio from 1430 to 1445. Quite a few good carriers above 1200, but between

Yes, Rob, some fanatical Japanese DXers have been inspired by some fanatical American DXers to spend some serious Yen to visit the Rockwork 4 cliff in July-- and personally experience one of the wildest and wackiest DXing sites on the planet.   Part of the attraction for them is the chance to

Re: [IRCA] BBN AM 1280 & BBC AM 1160 Bermuda

I am/was assuming with Defontes owned and operated tv and am, 1450 and fm, 106.1 going dark, so did 1160 and 1280 but have no actual confirmation. i was assuming defontes footed the bill for those stations operating and that bbn and bbc werent paying for it.. so when finances dictated the others

Re: [IRCA] BBN AM 1280 & BBC AM 1160 Bermuda

Heard a children's Bible program on 1160 November 7 2200z while in Newfoundland. Domestic stations were still in daylight at the time. I presumed this was Bermuda at the time but now that I think about it I would have expected BBC here, not Bible stuff. Was I hearing Antigua? Still seems early

[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 11-27

After another late night of antenna work I wasn't exactly motivated to go out in the subfreezing back yard for a full sunrise TP-DXing session. Fortunately a brief check at 1445 revealed only a ghostly signal from 1566-HLAZ and a ghostly carrier on 1593. Nothing on the low band was showing any

[IRCA] 27th pre dawn TP's.... Pretty much anywhere...

Running out of descriptors on the lifeless morning sessions... Today a feral dog ran away with the DX. Only 1566 shows any signs of life because it's the biggest dog on the dial. Colin Newell - CoffeeCrew.com - VA7WWV - Victoria - BC ___ IRCA mailing

Re: [IRCA] 27th pre dawn TP's.... Pretty much anywhere...

Yup. Actually I'm getting pretty good reception of 1566 at 15:25 as I type. Another reason for 1566 doing so well in Victoria is that there's no one close to them. On the Perseus, there's a big black area (no splatter) between 1560 and 1575, so no one bothers 1566. Notice that the same is

Re: [IRCA] 27th pre dawn TP's.... Pretty much anywhere...

In a nutshell...1566 is fairly listenable at 1530UT however. Beyond that, even carriers have been pretty thin. N At 15:23 27-11-15, you wrote: Running out of descriptors on the lifeless morning sessions... Today a feral dog ran away with the DX. Only 1566 shows any signs of life because

That's about half an hour past Antigua sunset so they are surely possible. And Google is your friend: Caribbean Radio Lighthouse has a program called "Storybook Room" at 2200. Sre sounds like a children's program. Chuck > Date: Fri, 27 Nov 2015 17:37:58 -0500 > From: jim.renf...@gmail.com > To:

[IRCA] 1270

I am hearing spanish on 1270.. it is either the Dallas station or one in Mexico. It was playing music earlier, seemed like softer/lighter music..now I hear two guys talking, but i don't understand a darn thing theyre saying. I thought i heard one of them say something like "Radio En coro" or
