Re: [IRCA] WLAC-1500 IBOC QUESTION
Willis - Re WLAC iBLOC, dunno, haven't checked last couple days. Will do so. iNiquity's li'l jammer spews noise all over M' Key from below 1500 to above 1520. At times you can tune lower sideband of WENG 1530 to hear 'LAC's hash wafting in, in same manner as the complex albeit familiar fragrance would emanate from open sewer ducts jutting conspicuously from Mr. Vanderbilt's Newport, RI, The Breakers, into the Atlantic would gently waft thru open windows, to the thorough enchantment of his summer banquet guests. We no longer allow people to discharge raw sewage into open waters, no matter how stinking rich, hubristic, and important they think they are. Why do we allow a similar bunch of greaszeballs to pollute the RF spectrum, to the annoyance of listeners in other countries? Oh, sorry, forgot, we've 'no business listening to out of contour stations.' When they quacked about 'reinventing government', what they actually meant was, 'making it up as we bullshale along'. What an achievement, jamming 50 KHz at a thousand miles! What a great way to deny people vital information. Wonder what they'll really use HD for, since it's obviously seen as an imbecillic joke by consumers? Will look around 1500 - 1520 tonight, tomorrow, see what's what. As many say of other stations who took the HD soup, WLAC's iBLOC does a workmanlike job of 'masking' their analog audio. Long listened to them here at night, couple good talk programs. HD's noise is fatiguing, so why support them now? z pv zecchino manasota key fl Thank you, no.

Re: [IRCA] Radio Rossii 1215 kHz
Bill I replayed my file and didn't hear any chimes at the ToH, though the signal was very weak then. I had a few words by a deep voiced man, then what sounded like news in Russian by a woman until 0405, then pop music. Later there was a talk by a Russian man for a few minutes at about 0415. I suspect we were getting it well because the auroral zone was in the right spot. Your propagation would have been via a completely different path.

[IRCA] TPs for 11 Nov
Don tells me my messages go out, even if I can't see incoming mail, so thought I'd send today's results, this time tying to get my month right. I'd said yesterday wasn't great, but it was absolutely fabulous compared to today. For the first time in quite a while I had zero audio from the TPs. Not even 774 could do better than a carrier today. Hope it's a lot better on the coast, don't want John going back to OK on this note! Last night's TA's certainly didn't live up to the promise of earlier in the day. Heard several, but generally they'd pop up for a minute or two, and that would be it for the evening. Noted audio on 855 (Spain), 891 (presumed Algeria given the music), 1107 (too weak to ID, but likely Italy like the previous day), 1116 (unID), 1206 (France), 1215 (Virgin Radio earlier, with the Russian taking over later), 1539 (Germany), and 1575 (Radio Farda). 73, Nigel Pimblett currently in Lamont, AB ___ 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

[IRCA] UnID TIS
Stopped by 1610 on 11/11 at 0600 PST and noted local Berkeley TIS as usual but also was hearing jazz music. Swinging the loop around to knock Berkeley back, I found max signal on NE/SW bearing. Occasional voice announcements with minimal readability sounded like they mentioned Marin County more than once. Also mentioned AM 1610 and Information Radio [now that REALLY pins it down!], but I couldn't dredge out any more. The loop bearing corresponds to the Mill Valley / Corte Madera part of the county. Anybody out there have specific ID info on this?? Also, I thought someone said that playing a lot of music on a TIS was a no-no and yet this was about 90% music. Also noted a huge carrier around 1330 UT on 891 -- Thailand, I guess, but any voice was lost to 890 nonstop voice QRM. 1340-1400UT 11/10 Chinese on 1134 was about the best on my dial for a while, but faded at TOH of course.

[IRCA] TPs for 11 Nov 07
The propagation monitor said that there was a pretty reasonable sunset enhancement this morning from 1500 to 1520, but my own impression from 1440 to 1515UT was of a good number of weak carriers, from various parts of Asia. For example, the ones on 657, 819 and 855 were all N. Korea judging by the off channel hum, and 1206 would have been China if it had delivered audio. But everything seemed weak, even the domestic splatter, so weak audio was sometimes identifiable, such as China on 1017 and 639. Asian unless noted. Darn good audio, if briefly: none Reasonable audio (though often battling w/splash) 594, 612 (DU in spite of a weather forecast by a N. American accented woman), 774 Not so reasonable audio, occasional words in splash or noise: 675, 1017 Burbles in the splatter: 639, 702 DU, 882 DU, 1008, 1475 late, 1566 late (a huge carrier however; their modulation seems to be getting poorer), 1575, 1593 late, strong carrier, no audio: 738 DU, 972 with a one second SAH later, 1098 best wishes, Nick Nick Hall-Patch Victoria, B.C.

Re: [IRCA] UnID TIS (Marin County CA)
Anybody out there have specific ID info on this?? // Your loop bearing is pretty accurate Art. The FCC database shows a TIS on 1610 licensed to the Ross Valley Fire Service in San Anselmo. The transmitter site is listed as 150 Butterfield Road. The call sign is WPKX394 and the power is 10 watts. The control point and business address is 777 San Anselmo Ave. The contact person is JoAnne Lewis at 415-258-4686. The license specifies that they shall transmit only non-commercial voice information but doesn't specifically prohibit music. There use to be a provision that prohibited music on a TIS but I can no longer find it in the rules. Many TIS stations broadcast some music content. The TIS at Denver International Airport, for example, routinely plays seasonal music during the holidays. They use the music as a bumper between information segments.

[IRCA] TPs Nov 11: Decent
Since this AM was my last one to DX here until mid-May, I got up at 4:30 local time (sunrise 7:15 AM) to get the last bit of gusto before we head back to OKlahoma. My efforts were rewarded with pretty darn decent conditions, even that early. I had at least mumble-level audio on virtually every channel from 738 to 1107 before the morning was over and on about 50% of the rest of the channels. 774 Japan was the strongest and the most consistent through the morning, but I also had very listenable audio on: 828 Japan, 837 Harbin (excellent at times), 918 Shandong, 936 Anhui (not great-but best o season), 963 the CRI Russian Lang. SVC, 1377 CNR1, 1386 NHK2 Synchros and language recognition level on a slew of others. The morning closed out for me with a het and then threshold audio appearing once again for a few post-dawn minutes on 1548. Gonna have to get at least to the language recognition level before I can start bragging about DW in Sri Lanka, but this sure keeps my hopes up for next year. Since we don't like to drive much at night and the days are now short, I'll be on line from various motels most evenings this next week. Lord willin' and the creek don't rise, we project getting to central Oklahoma by Thursday evening. We are hoping for a very boring road trip. Its been a wonderful season with so many high points that I hardly dare think about them (leaving the lovely Pacific Northwest is difficult enough as it is.) It was great hearing all sorts of new stations, mostly here on Orcas rather than Grayland this year, and the DXpedition to QCI was REALLY special. The most fun was spending time with various old friends (getting older every season) and meeting one new one... I finally got over to Victoria, BC in person and got to meet Colin Newell for the first time, face-to-face. A very nice man. Colin has provided several of my best grins, too. Colin lives in a high-rise in Victoria... on the 8th floor or so. During those great conditions recently, he found he could do better DXing with his e1 by getting away from his DX desk hanging it (the radio) out over the rail of his balcony, whip antenna extended. I've heard of DXing bare-foot, but given the dark hour, Ol' Colin may have had several other parts bare up on that balcony at Oh dark:30! Colin, may this be the year that you and yours find that perfect house with room for real antennas next fall, it would be nice to be inside, I bet! Although the Fall TA and TP season (from the Pacific NW) is obviously winding down, I hope it continues to give you guys reason to get up before dawn and stagger over to the radio I'll be reading the list, hoping to be (mildly) jealous!

Re: [IRCA] TPs Nov 11: Decent
John, This has been a Red Letter season for DX, even along the coast. All these TAs alone have been really special. Have a safe trip back, and like you I don't like night driving any longer either. Hopefully next Fall will be another good one. I also want to thank you with all of your help with the chokes. They have really helped with directivity of the antennas. Without them, I may not have finally logged KBRW Barrow. Keep after all of those Canadians too. You may hear some, you haven't heard here. A good beverage to the North may bring in Flin Flon MB on 590. It was great to visit with you at Grayland a couple weeks back too. With the bad weather on the way, hopefully you will get off the island early before the high winds hit. Along the coast we ar looking at possible wind gusts on 85 MPH. It wil be a short-lived stom, as the high wind warning is in effect from 6AM to 1 PM. At least here. Take care my friend and I look forward to seeing you again next year. 73, Patrick Patrick Martin KAVT Reception Manager ___ 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

[IRCA] SDR remote operation
I was looking over the SDR-14 tonight to see how it could be operated remotely. It looks very easy. There is a program in the C:\Program Files\Spectravue\ folder called SDRxxServer.exe which sets it up. Click on it, hit Stop and change the port number to whatever is appropriate for the internet router in use, and restart. Should come up in a Waiting mode. This does require a static IP address on the host computer. On the remote end, start Spectravue as normal. In the SDR-xx setup tab change the Interface Selection to Network. Then in the Network area, change to the correct IP address and port. Then start things as normal. As a test, I started the server program and set the port to a convenient one. Default is 5 which may not work on some routers or systems. Then in the Spectravue program itself, I set the IP address to 127.0.0.1 which is the computer itself, and selected the correct port. I selected the Network interface, started it up, and it worked just fine. I don't have a static IP address at home, and my office is too noisy electrically. I'm going to see if I can set the radio up temporarily at a client that does have a static IP and see just how well it works. This just seems to easy to be true. If anyone wants to test theirs out for remote operation, drop me a note offlist. The SDR-14 and SDR-IQ both should work. It does require that static IP address. Picture one of these installed permanently at Grayland or Newfoundland...

Re: [IRCA] 506 kHz, experimental stations
I've heard Wayland MA WE2XGR/1 506 KHz the past few nights with a killer signal. Tonight they have more than a killer signal. I copied two stations on 506, and both come out with the same calls. There is some overlap making it difficult for this morse code neophyte. Also heard 882 Wales, British talk male and female at different times. Lots of hets, nothing inordinately huge.

[IRCA] WFAW test
Haven't heard any code here since the test was due to start, but oddly, we did hear what sure sounded like code during the previous hour. With our attention mainly on TA's I haven't gone back and checked the tape yet. I do know the test has netted me a new station though, as I got a few minutes of CINW from Montreal. Thought I'd check 800 after that and sure enough, heard CJAD in there, for only my 2nd logging of that one. Still TA carriers around, and France was in with a couple of minutes of audio on 864 just after 0630 UTC. Beyond the regulars on 1215 and 1134, Sweden on 1179 has been doing well for much of the last couple of hours.

Re: [IRCA] WFAW DX TEST
They were pretty good here at 0129 Pat. I got at least two Morse Code IDs and 940 is really cluttered with at least 5 maybe 6 or 7 other stations popping up. Keep at it.

[IRCA] WFAW Test
Only sweep tones heard in St. Louis. KIXZ Amarillo was dominant at the beginning of the test. GX94 and semi local WMIX have taken over. Did hear a Motley Crue song in the first hour, don't know where that came from.

Re: [IRCA] WFAW DX TEST
Running the white flag up the old antenna tower here as I surrender to the government authorized iBLOC jammer located 4 miles east of me (KKFN). It's doing a fine job of keeping those nasty DX signals between 940 and 960 kHz out of my receiver. A real thank you to the folks who put this test together. I was really looking forward to hearing WFAW again. I last QSLed them in 1969.
