[IRCA] KOAL?
Someone is out of whack just below 750 giving KXL a growl. I suspect KOAL. Nothing so far but unidentifiable talk programming and 888/800 phone #s. Noted 12/15 0015 PST occasionally equal with KXL but with deep disappearing fades.

Re: [IRCA] Trans-World Radio on 800Kc
Thanks Gil. I try and be a help to those who want help, and don't help anyone who doesn't want it! I have two QSL cards from 1963, for reception of TWR. I was in Texas at the time. In 1967 and 68, I was down in that part of the world and listen to them nightly, with a protable radio while I sat on the bow of the ship I was on. 73's Willis Old Fort, TN 800 Bonaire has been a regular for me on the xtl radio over the years. Listening to it now on the SRF59. Simultaneous translation from the SP to the EE. Thanks for the heads up.

[IRCA] SRF-59 Redux, where the Kaito Failed
I've been tracking an unidentified country station on 560 for the past several nights. I first heard it last Tuesday on my new SFR-59, mixing with WQAM in Miami with my local WFIL in Philadelphia nulled on the SRF. But the country station was mixed in underneath. My shack is finally coming together but I don't have my FRG-7 or my DX-150B hooked up to my outside antennas yet so I'm basically running my Kaito KA1103 barefoot, with my box loop and Select-A-Tenna right now. Last night, I pulled out the SRF and tuned to 560 again and there was my unid station, ending an ad string with ...also in Middlesboro on US Route 25E...: then into Southern Gospel Music. The announcer had a strong mountain accent. I didn't get the ID (didn't have time to stay with it) but I strongly presume WMIK in Middlesboro KY, listed at 88 watts (!!!) at night. They were putting in a good-to-great signal on the SRF with the other stations nulled out. I went to the Kaito and the Select-A-Tenna to see if I could get it and I could barely pull WMIK out of the mud. I think I had WMIK in the Kaito but nowhere near as well as on the SRF. I'm wondering how well the FRG-7 hooked up to my 200-foot longwire would have done. I should have it on today in time for Radio St. Helena Day, but tonight, I do want to put the SRF head to head with the Frog on the wire. But last night's new station furthered the legend of the SRF-59 in my mind!

I've had a gift certificate from Amazon since my birthday in June, and, with a couple of books I thought I needed, I determined I'd check out the SRF-59. The tuning will take a bit of getting used to ... even the slightest adjustment could move the dial 50 to 100 kHz ... but the reception is amazing. On FM, the little ear-bud headphones fill my head with lush stereo sounds, making me even sadder that I've reached the age where nobody wants to niche program to me anymore!

Heard one morning after getting home from work, a little after 2:00AM. Just a little fading of the signal, which added to the song. The SRF-59 is so inexpensive a person could have one in different locations throughout the house. Take the SRF-59 out to the coast and away from strong locals, you'll hear TP stations. Dennis, Vancouver, WA -- Original message -- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi Dennis: I managed to get up this morning as well. 693-JOAB was coming in pretty well near Seattle here with old Carpenters music (which was weaker but audible on 747 and 774) with TOH pips (3 short and 1 long) at 1500 UTC. Other frequencies had decent hets but no audio. I tried to get the SRF-59 to duplicate the 693 catch but didn't dare wake the XYL to retrieve it. Better planning will help next time...or maybe one SRF-59 for the shack and one for the night table? 73 - Kevin S Bainbridge Island, WA -- Good Morning: Listened from 1400 - 1445.

[IRCA] SRF=59's Special Canadian Mission
Recently five brave SRF-59 units were recruited from Amazon for a top-secret mission: spread the SRF-59 boom into Canada, and provide our Canadian friends with exciting DX fun in the cold winter months. If you are a Canadian DXer and would like a free, new complimentary SRF-59 radio to thrill you this winter, simply send an email off-list with your name and address, to the chief SRF-59 Promoting Culprit at the address above. Although five SRF-59 units have volunteered for this exciting mission, the Promoting Culprit may expand the program, if more requests are received. This mission is being executed for the following objectives: To spread the SRF-59 Boom into Canada, to provide exciting Ultralight DX to our Canadian friends during a long winter, and to express a small measure of appreciation to two very special Canadians for making the SRF-59 Boom possible. 73 and Best Wishes, Gary (Chief Promoting Culprit) **See AOL's top rated recipes (http://food.aol.com/top-rated-recipes?NCID=aoltop000304) ___ 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
Re: [IRCA] Amazon Lowers Prices on SRF-59 and SRF-M37V
To Ed MacDonald, KR0I: I am very happy to hear that you are ordering the SRF-59, and you can rest assured that it will Zap your locals like a little Star Trek Phaser. Here at my suburban location, all of the locals can be nulled down into the noise, and the tiny SRF-59 has even pulled in other stations right on my locals' frequencies at night (like it has done for Kevin, another WA state DXer). When you hear TA hets around sunset, Ed, go ahead and try to pull audio out of them... the SRF-59 has received 3 TP stations for me. It's truly the medium-wave equivalent to ham radio's thrilling QRP activity.

[IRCA] Total Recorder Problem
Hi Russ and Marc, That's a logical conclusion for you to reach, but I set up the recording around 1 AM last night, and checked the date/time afterward. So it's something else. I've experienced this problem before, and even downloaded another copy from High Criteria and reinstalled it. So maybe it's something I'm still not getting. Thanks, Dave Dave, My guess is that you probably entered a parameter incorrectly. As an example, if, on Dec 14 at 2200 you wanted to begin recording on Dec 15 at 0355 but entered Dec 14 at 0355 by mistake, the status of the job would probably be expired because Dec 14 at 0355 was already in the past. If you have some spare time, try scheduling several short recordings during the day. When you get it working properly, you'll love it! Marc is almost certainly right. You probably set up the schedules on 12/14 and failed to re-set the defaulted 12/14 date to 12/15. I've done that a few times.

[IRCA] The Lean Mean Ultralight DXing Machine, Part II
Thinking in terms of the ARRL Field Day, and the worst conditions that I could impose on the SRF-59, I took my unit to the Great Lakes Crossing Mall, one of the largest shopping malls in the Metro Detroit area. Predictably, I was getting too much QRN to hear any MW stations, even the strong locals such as WJR and WWJ. Switching over to the FM band was another story entirely. Very first station heard was low power WBFH, 88.1, Bloomfield Hills, running 360 watts from a distance of about 7 miles. The major stations posed no problems from inside the building, to which I then tuned to 97.1 WXYT-FM where I was able to enjoy the Detroit Red Wings Florida Panthers hockey game while my wife was shopping. 73 de Joe, KJ8O, Troy, MI Never miss a thing.

Re: [IRCA] TPs for 14 Dec
Hi Patrick and Nick, Thanks to Nick's 774 NHK2 Barreling In post at 0739 UTC, I checked the band around 0830, and found not only 774 but also 747 with decent audio. 972 soon followed. With one of the new Ultralight contestants for the 2008 Shootout, the cigarette lighter-sized Sangean DT-180V, I tried hard to pull audio out of the strong carriers, but the tiny thing just didn't have the chance to seal the deal. The SRF-59 has shown the ability to log medium-strong TP's like last night's levels, but this extremely tiny Sangean competitor may need more Japanese RF horsepower to get it done. Anyway, its 9 kHz split capability (and 5 memories)gives you hope of success, even if it doesn't make any contacts, hi. 73, Gary **See AOL's top rated recipes (http://food.aol.com/top-rated-recipes?NCID=aoltop000304) ___ 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
Re: [IRCA] Amazon Lowers Prices on SRF-59 and SRF-M37V
Hi Gary, From what I've been reading, the 59 should give me lots of fun for the rest of the winter. I usually use a Quantum loop and a long wire but am looking for more portable capability. I've also been a QRP type for many years for the challenge but do crank it up to 100w when necessary to grab a new country. Have 323 confirmed and still waiting for 324 to come in (g) Been logging BC and SW since I was a young kid about 70 years ago...

[IRCA] The Lean Mean Ultralight DXing Machine, Part III
More neat stuff to do with your SRF-59. Unless you're out shopping, jogging, or laying in bed, headphones are all too frequently not fun to use. I have a Realistic SP-150 Communications speaker that is rated for 8 ohms, 2 watts of input power. Of course, it uses the 1/4 jack, but I made a patch cord to convert from 1/4 to 1/8, plugged it into the SRF-59 and voila, I have sound. Another alternative would be to cut off the old plug and wire the 1/8 size in it's place A couple of cautions: The speaker is mono, so I'm not sure if I'm picking up both channels or just one. Also, don't expect ear-splitting volume. Although I have a preference for the SP-150 (which sometimes shows up on eBay) I would think that most CB/Ham radio external speakers would also work just well. Just some more fuel for thought from a happy owner. 73 de Joe Miller, KJ8O, Troy, MI Never miss a thing.

We've had a decent CHRB 1140 Alberta mixing with WRVA-VA. Also from the west: MN 560, WI 580, IA 600, 1060 very strong Mexico City (though no sign of Calgary). Winnipeg 990 in but not as strong as it could be. Not that this precludes further stuff... Halifax earlier on 1140 was quite decent. Earlier had Boston on 1150 for a new catch.

Looks like the A/K indices are dropping, hopefully that bodes well for the 1400 CA test tonight (I highly doubt I'd hear that one even under great cx but I will try for it nevertheless) and 1210 AZ tomorrow night (I might have a shot at that one).

Hello Paul, I can see that we need to change the secret military code for communications to Canada.

Anyway, no problem on your request, and the Chief SRF-59 Promoting Culprit has already decided that you are deserving of a new SRF-59 Promotional Unit, because our top-secret records indicate that your vote for the Ultralight name was the deciding factor in the ultimate christening term for this thrilling new form of AM-DX. Accordingly, it is the desire of the Promoting Culprit that you enjoy your new SRF-59 with full military honors, and the sincere appreciation of all Ultralight Fanatics both here and (very shortly) in Canada. Your question concerning headphones will not be discussed on this list, but privately. There will be no further communication provided on this matter, on the IRCA list. Really. Really.

[IRCA] Ever so slightly off topic: who doesn't love CBC or NPR?
The power of radio was proven once again this morning at 7AM local time on CBC British Columbia (Radio-1) I was a guest on the show North by Northwest this morning - a show that features eclectic music selections and profiles of B.C artists. Several MP3 streams are available here on http://www.twooldgoats.ca/ They are good for a chuckle - it is 6 minutes long and features music and commentary from my debut music CD. After getting up at 6AM to set-up a couple of recorders, I listened to the show at 7AM and then fell back asleep. When I woke up 1.5 hours later and checked my e-mail, much to my surprise there was a small deluge of CD orders.
