[IRCA] Good conditions to the east

  The east hasn't been favoured here this season, but this is likely the best night thus far to the east from here in southern Alberta. Toronto is doing pretty well on 740, "Uptown 1010 (WAUK) is on top on 1010, and WMVP is atop 1000, all for the first time this season. 73, Nigel Pimblett

Here's a unique once-in-a-lifetime offer to foreign AM DXers. Are you interested in DXing in the Arctic DX paradise of Aihkiniemi in the Finnish Lapland with some local help? Can you leave for a week of DXing at a short notice? If so, read on. DXing in an entirely new location can be very

Re: [IRCA] Both DUs and TPs for Oct. 3, OR Coast

Thanks for your DU-TP report from the cliff, Guy. A DX-chasing session at that sweeping ocean view site is a great way to start the day :-) <<< I'm only starting to review files for this morning from the Rockworks #4 site, but the morning was a mixture of TPs and DUs. In addition to 657 Star

Hi Dennis, Thanks for your daily TP-DU reports from Kalama. <<< 765 UNKNOWN, 10/04 1404 poor DU signal with talk. >>> If the talk is not in English, you probably have 765-Kahungunu, an overachieving 2.5 kW Maori-language station in NZ. It is // 603-Waatea, and has been heard by Nick several

[IRCA] S. AZ TP/DU, Oct 4

Lots of hets over low/mid band today; 1566 HLAZ again with a number of good-level fadeups. I've discovered that the Japan NHK network stations play 3 pips and a longer chime at top of hour. The pips are a lower pitched "A" note with the chime the same A note played an octave above (the chime

Re: [IRCA] Both DUs and TPs for Oct. 3, OR Coast

Both 60 Hz spikes around 1098 carrier here in IL again this morning. This is something I hadn't notice until a week or so ago. I guess somehow the OC is picking up 60 Hz hum. I wonder if V7AB is now putting out their full 25 kW? Seems stronger than last season to me. The strength of V7AB lets me

[IRCA] Morning commute 4-Oct-17 -- opening to the West

A few times a year, when I'm tuning around on the car radio, there will be a good opening to the West. This was one of those mornings. Here's what I had time to hear (about a 25-minute commute): 850 KOA Denver CO - 1130 UTC ID at BOH then news; fairly common when my commute is around local
