Re: [IRCA] Bogs/Bugs
Walt, I only climb the shorter trees at 20-25 feet. Those Shore Pines were topped years ago. I also take a long pole and often push the wire with weights over a limb from the ground. I did that recently to raise and move the NW EWE a bit. I have been climbing trees since I was 8. Not as limber as I once was, but I can still do it. 10 years from now, who knows? I'll be 60 next March. 73, Patrick Patrick Martin KGED QSL 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

John, as always, thanks for the guidance on frequencies. 639 had reasonable (6+) islands music at 11:51. Nothing at all on 576, but barely there audio on 756 at 11:51. 828I can see the spike easily on Perseus, but just a lot of local noise, I think. 738: Nice audioFor a change It's RFO in French at 11:58. Actually at least a 7. Good modulation for a change! Close to an 8 by 11:59. I actually used the splat rejection on Perseus to good effect, although nothing I couldn't do with LSB or PBT. Nice to see that it worked. Sure wish it was automatic, though. During the hot and heavy DX sessions at dawn, there simply isn't time. I can see it handy though when trying to tease out every last little bit of intelligebility. I checked at 12:05, John, but only a weak barely there audio. Too bad you weren't there at 11:59! I'm sure it would have been strong on your set too. Nothing here on 675 or 1107. 963 had EZL C&W music at 12:12 at a good 7 level. Obviously not CRI Russian Service! (the usual here in my neck of the woods in the fall). Nick heard 774 this morning as did I. At 12:14 it was very weak, but stronger at 11:47, but faded out by 12:00, so unsure who, but intonation sounded possibly like NHK2. That's it for now from Victoria.

Re: [IRCA] IRCA 52 -2-1/ 1040 Portland
Bill, CKST runs day pattern day & night now.? I am surprised by their signal down here if they are doing that. Their night signal is much stronger than day here. Infact their day pattern is barely audible mixing with KXPD phased. If they are indeed using day pattern at night, then I would guess they should be weaker. Their old night pattern had a lobe this way. On that subject, I am wondering if CISL-650 is staying on day pattern at night too? As they are supposed to have a lobe kind of to the SW on night pattern and yet they have as poor a signal at night as day here. I like their oldies mix, but they aren't comfortable to really listen too. I get them better days in the Summer off the vertical. 1040 came on as a 2.2 KW daytime and 200 watts nights back in 93 and changed calls and formats ownership, etc a couple times. In 93 they came on as KEZF. They were K Love for years. They were sold a few years back. After KEZF in 93, by 97 they were KLVP, then shortly after that KSKD. When they went SS, they changed to KXPD. They are ND. CKST creams them at night here as well as WHO. 73, Patrick Patrick Martin KGED QSL 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] TP's for July 1, Cortes Island
What would a vacation be without DX?We're on Cortes Island in northern Georgia Strait, and though facing east towards the mainland, there's DX, though it's vacation style, i.e. being recorded by an SDR-14 and reviewed idly during the day. This morning, monitoring was between 1050 and 1230UTC, over 605 to 795 kHz, and using a corner fed loop of roughly 30 feet high by 50 feet across, roughly east-west.The SDR-14 and antenna sounded very splattery, and there's frequency specific noise here, but the following things poked through. pretty darn good audio (at least briefly): none reasonable audios (though often battling w/splash): 774 man in JJ at 1124UT (JJ talk by woman at 1050UT, nothing on hour, but EE lessons after the hour. and a brief blast of quite readable signal at 1119UT previous to this) not so reasonable audio, occasional words in splash or noise: 702 likely 2BL at 1157UT w/Aussie accented man and woman, 738 Tahiti w/FF sounding talk at 1200 w/monster carrier >740 (also a man talking sounded FF at 1100), Burbles in the splatter and noise: 639 islandish rhythms at 1115UT, possibly Fiji; 747 JJ talk by man // 774 at 1117UT; 612 and 792 ( 1200ish and likely Aussie); Strongish het, no audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter):612, 657, 756, 792 best wishes, Nick * Nick Hall-Patch Victoria, BC Canada ___ 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] Grayland TP's and DU's, 6-29 and 6-30
Hello All, With eternal optimism despite the recent poor DU conditions, a two-day DXpedition to Grayland, Washington was scheduled over the weekend, primarily to test out the latest hot-rodded Ultralight radio, a modified Eton E100. This supercharged model, containing the latest twisted tinkering ideas of John Bryant, Guy Atkins and myself, has the new combination of extreme sensitivity AND selectivity, something very new in hot-rodded Ultralights. It was indeed fortunate that the pocket-sized modified radio was well prepared, because the DX conditions were generally awful. The SSB receiver used to "spot" Ultralight radio targets was a modified ICF-2010 (with a 19.5" loopstick). When in Grayland, this radio can usually pull in some DU audio, even on John's "golfing mornings." The Sunday (6-29) morning conditions were modest at best, although there was an unusual summertime opening to Japan around 1125, which took me completely by surprise. A booming JOIK-567 was heard on the modified 2010, the modified E100, and even on a stock Sony SRF-T615 midget radio. The Japanese powerhouses on 747, 774, 828, 1134 and 1287 were then all heard on both the 2010 and E100, at equivalent signal strength and quality. This was a real breakthrough in hot-rodded Ultralights-- a modified pocket radio that could match the "supercharged" 2010 in both sensitivity and selectivity. Sunday morning's DU's were limited to weak DU English on 738 at 1215 (presumed 2NR) and to equally weak 4QR-612 audio at 1220. There were many DU carriers that never reached audio, but that's been typical for the recent trips to Grayland. When you are only using stand-alone portables with hot-rodded loopsticks, you need to be thankful for what you get. Monday (6-30) morning was pretty much a repeat of Sunday's lackluster conditions, minus the rare summertime opening to Japan. 567-2YA rolled in with weak music around 1215, and provided a stiff test for the modified E100's new narrow filter (up against a loud KVI-570 that could not be nulled). The newly hot-rodded Ultralight again matched the 2010 in selectivity, receiving New Zealand with very little KVI slop. This was despite the E100's lack of SSB capability-- quite a surprise. Weak 738 DU English was then again received at 1221, and finally, a very weak talk program on 891 at 1227, which actually had audio first on the modified E100, a few seconds before the monster 2010 could produce it. This was the final surprise of a very interesting weekend. Thanks to John and Guy for their suggestions on creating this new DXpedition Ultralight, the details of which will be fully promulgated to the Ultralight enthusuast group (and others) in a series of upcoming articles. I feel very fortunate to be associated with such creative, innovative tinkerers. This weekend's results proved that modified pocket radios can provide DX excitement and success in very tough conditions-- and maybe even keep a few confirmed DXers off the golf courses. 73, Gary DeBock **Gas prices getting you down?

LWBC Russians 180 weak, 279 very poor 1118 utc. ___ 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
