Re: [IRCA] TA oddments...enough for now?
I dubbed off Scotland 810 and France 864. The Scotland 810 is a bit rough, but you can clearly hear "on Radio One" from a British speaker, so apparently 810 relays Radio One. France is a bit better, but not a whole lot. But at least two new ones. 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] TA oddments...enough for now?
Things continued to be bitty beyond some consistent signals on channels like 1134, 1215, 1269... But.sometimes they'd hang in long enough to get a "parallel" with a web stream. The best was Sweden on 1179 at 0455UT, new country for me. DLF on 756 was also snagged (a re-log) VoR on 1323, also a relog, but almost good at times w/EE nx at 0520UT But mostly it was those who got away, not fading up long enough to nail them down using webstreams. Among the audios (and most were rarely better than mumblings in the murk): 1017, possibly Germany, 774 (Spain?), 1611 (Vatican), 837 likely France Info, by the time 1377 had faded up for a //, this was fading down; 1278 poor to fair w/mx at 0515 (France Bleu?), and 765 at 0525 (R. Suisse Romande?) Great fun!

Hi Chris, Thanks for your question. During detailed testing of the new PL-310 in my suburban location, there was no problem at all with overloading-- and the DSP Ultralights in general have developed a reputation for being almost "crunch-proof" in resistance to overloading. There were also no AM spurs or mixing products detected, although like the PL-300WT (and G8) models there are some internally-generated heterodynes, as detailed in the PL-310 review article. My 9' (side) PVC box loop will severely overload most Ultralight radios when tuning in locals, but the DSP Ultralights (PL-310, PL-300WT, G8, D96L and D92L) are unfazed by such massive RF. My guess is that you will have no problem at all in overloading with the new PL-310, even in urban areas. 73, Gary DeBock (in Puyallup, WA) In a message dated 10/13/2009 12:33:30 A.M.

Hello All, The Chinese domestic market has produced yet another highly refined pocket radio with awesome DX capabilities-- which happens to be the "flagship" DSP model from China's leading radio manufacturing company. The new Tecsun PL-310 LW-AM-FM-SW portable was designed to excel in the billion consumer market, and if you have ever dreamed of a highly sensitive and selective AM receiver that you could hold in your hand, the Tecsun company certainly had you in mind! Combining multiple DSP selectivity options (1, 2, 3, 4 and 6 kHz) with a vastly improved loopstick, the $40 (plus shipping) PL-310 is designed to astonish both experienced and novice DXers alike. Besides the outstanding AM-DXing performance, the PL-310 also has competitive LW capabilities, and FM performance equal to the class-leading PL-300WT (G8) models. Read the full details in a thorough 6-page review just uploaded to the Ultralight Radio File section on _http://www.dxer.ca_ (http://www.dxer.ca) , and to the file section on the Yahoo Ultralightdx group site, "The Tecsun PL-310 LW-AM-FM-SW DSP Receiver-- Four Band Performance Review." Available for $39.99 plus $24 shipping from the top-rated eBay seller "Anon-co," this innovative new radio may well be the dream multiband receiver you have been waiting for-- and the perfect introduction to the unique fun and excitement of Ultralight Radio DXing! 73 and Best Wishes, Gary DeBock (in Puyallup, WA) ___ 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 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 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

It's a big spread of carrier between 828.000 and 828.007kHz 819 had Arabic singing briefly at 0254UT, likely Egypt, while 855 showed SS talk briefly. 1377 of course lining up with the web stream with mx, briefly good signal. As others have noted 1134, 1215, 1269 all with reasonable signal for a few moments. Lots of other bitty audio: 675 likely Holland, 702 (any clues? Morocco?), 837, 864 w/a SAH, 873, 963, 999, 1089, 1422 etc. No IDs beyond 1377 so far though...

[IRCA] Alberta TPs for 14 Oct 2009
Seemed to be a good morning for the upper end of the band, but rather mediocre lower down. In general China seemed to be favoured, with CNR1 doing well on 945, 981, and 1593. CRI in Russian was in on 1323, but was better on 1521 (which has been a regular this week). The Urumqi station on 1107 was also in quite well at times with talk in a central Asian language. VOA 1575 and Korea on 1566 were about as strong as I've heard them all season, and I could make out a few words of German, undoubtedly from DW Sri Lanka, on 1548.Heard some decent audio on 1467 also, not one of my regular channels. 73, Nigel Pimblett Dunmore, Alberta ___ 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] Analog 24 Atomic clock set on UTC
Mike, Thanks! I was wondering if a UK made clock would work on WWVB. That is a thought. I also found Franklin Clock Co to still be in business, so I e mailled them about either a new clock or a new motor for my old one, if available. So I have several options. Besides that, I found another company online Time and Signal Co that still makes electric clocks (110v). I did not see any 24 hour ones, but I can call them too. 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] Day THREE at Grayland
Conditions seem to be "healing" somewhat along with the arrival of the fall rainy season. In general, signals seemed somewhat better and the more northerly routes (the Russians) were at least present, if not at full strength. I managed a long log for a reception report (yet again) for Voice of Vietnam, with the 675 signal being up and down a lot, but a solid 9 on peaks. Even better the VOV1 transmitters on 5975, Hanoi and 7210 Buon Me Thuot were both in, with 5975 doing quite well. The third SW transmitter on 9530 did not seem to be on the air, the best that I could tell. Thanks to a tip from Chuck Hutton, I heard Heilongjiang RGD Satellite Synchros on 1341//621, for only my second TP logging on 1341 (the other being NHK1 mini-Synchros some years ago.) Mayak 549 Synchros were in for the first time this trip, doing poorly but clearly //576 which wasn't doing too well either. I also heard 909 JOCB, NHK2 Nagoya totally dominating Tianjin, China for the first time this season. CNR2 was doing especially well this morning, all over KCIS, 630 at max dawn and CNR1 on 540 was knocking down walls, it was so powerful. Lastly 684 was in standard Chinese this morning at 1440 UTC, post-dawn, rather than the usual Pyongyang Bangsong. No way that I could find to try //s and it was gone along with most of the band by 1500, 40 minutes after LSR. So, there it is... Things were marginally better and clearly headed in the right direction. There is hope for tomorrow, my last morning on this trip. John B.

Re: [IRCA] Analog 24 Atomic clock set on UTC
Seems crazy that they don't offer an option to offset the time. Short sighted, I'd say! Walt. It is funny, but I ran into an Ham that has been active for 60-70 years. He doesn't have an Atomic clock that will work on UTC either. The old wall clock is probably my best option. I wish I could replace the old motor in my Franklin clock, but it is a real 24 hour clock and a regular clock motor would not work.

Re: [IRCA] Puyallup, WA TP's for 10-14-- Barely Average
Hi Nick, Thanks for your comments. Despite the fact that Puyallup is quite a mediocre DXing location, the 9' box loop has certainly been a real thriller since I deployed it on October 3. The general TP bearing direction is around 310 degrees, so I usually set the loop facing that way when I start DXing each morning. That bearing seems to work well in general, although sometimes I need to change the loop bearing to null out a pest to the north or south (Vancouver, Seattle or Portland), leaving a bearing less than optimum for TP chasing, but still acceptable for splatter-free reception. The 9' (side) loop has received 8 mew TP's for me since it was set up on October 3rd, including several that I had never heard at Grayland. The dimensions and construction are detailed in the PVC Loop article posted on _http://www.dxer.ca_ (http://www.dxer.ca) , _http://www.am-dx.com_ (http://www.am-dx.com) and the Yahoo Ultralightdx site. If a DXer has a decent back yard (and tolerant neighbors), this $52 gain monster may be just the trick for exciting DX. 73, Gary In a message dated 10/14/2009 9:33:50 A.M.

Re: [IRCA] TA's found inside BOG last night
Gil, When I use BOGs for TA's here from the upper midwest, I typically aim somewhat north of my great circle paths to them, but I agree that you'd (Savannah GA) be better served by aiming somewhat south of them. In both cases the goal is the same... to have the TA's still basically in the BOG's main beam, but to have the huge pests that come from the eastern USA..ie typically NYC down the side of that main beam. If you lose a dB or two on the TA signals, but 10 to 15 dB on the pests, your ability to copy audio from TA's goes way up. If your beach is very wide or if the road or path to it is available, you may wish to run due east and really try to trash both NYC and Cuban/Floridian QRM. Due east sb good for Mauritania 783 (is usually ona bit past 0100)as well as Sao Tome 1530 and Benin 1566 (both come on at 0300 I think) 73 KAZ Barrington IL/Grafton WI -Original Message- >From: Gil Stacy >Sent: Oct 14, 2009 9:07 AM >To: irca@hard-core-dx.com >Subject: [IRCA] TA's found inside BOG last night > >Kevin, >Thanks.

[IRCA] E-100 mixing product
Hi,all: I also have a mixing product with my E-100 during the day which is 910 KHz down from semi-local WBCR ,Alcoa ,Tn.The mixing product is on 560 KHz .It does not seem to be there at night. I have not tried one of my passive loops on the mixing product to see if it would vanish.I think it probably will though.

[IRCA] TP for 14 Oct from Victoria, BC
Got lazy this morning and didn't start listening until about 1410UT; there seemed to be a peak of sorts at 1425, but I suspect some of that was the "signal to splatter" ratio increasing as the domestics faded. Still had to work at the DX, and most of what was heard was unexceptional, but as Colin noted, there were Chinese today. pretty darn good audio (at least briefly): 594 JOAK 774 JOUB 828 JOBB at 1428UT 1566 HLAZ; unusually steady over the period, not really loud, but very clear 1575 VoA reasonable audio at times during the period (though often battling w/splash or noise): 603 HLSA // 558 at similar level at 1419UT 747 JOIB 936 mx, likely Anhui? at 1424 945 CNR-1 //5030 at 1425 954 JOKR w/JJ talk 972 HLCA 1593 CNR-1 //5030 at 1426UT not so reasonable audio, occasional words in splash or noise: 153//189//279 R.

Re: [IRCA] Fw: Does anyone have an affiliates list for conservative talk network?
Hello Mauno Yes OM I confirmed this with the station. Unfortunately with no ID I cannot count this as a definite log UNLESS it is the only Radio America station on 920. This is why I was looking for a R.A. affiliates list. Many thanks for your feedback.

[IRCA] TA's found inside BOG last night
Kevin, Thanks. I do the same when at home, but it wouldn't work on the beach as neither coax nor my military commo wire have the necessary flexibility to wrap around the Kchibo D96l to easily couple the BOG to the rx. The RS clip lead does. South African Gary Deacon couples his little M37 to his 200 meter bog by wrapping a few turns around the rx. This works fine for my D96L. This was the first time on the beach with the BOG and next time, I'll put out a longer Bog and be more careful in the layout. I'm 45 degrees great circle bearing to London and the layout last night was closer to 30 degrees. Next time I'll shoot more towards 60 degrees as 40-45 degrees pretty much follows the Eastern coastline towards Europe. A more easterly direction should offer more side rejection to the west of me as I'm about 1000 miles from Boston which means I'm plowing through a lot of east coast stations towards Europe and Africa. 73 Gil ___ 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

It makes things a lot easier if you can find a piece of coax used for TV and connect that to the PAL connector and connect the center conductor to the antenna. Works great.

[IRCA] TA's found inside BOG last night
Actually, not all of them were found stuck in the BOG. After work, I drove about 20 miles from home to Tybee Island, Ga, and at local sunset, rolled out a 500' BOG along the dune line, and floated the BOG to my E-1 via an insulated clip lead so as not to hit the ground side of the PAL connector. The two foot lead was connected to the BOG which is twisted pair military commo wire with ends soldered together. I used the two common TA lists on the yahoo ULR site compiled by Allen Willie and Mike Connelly as starting points. At 23:54 Z, England clearly came in on 1089 with football (soccer) talk. It took a slight offset with the passband tuning to uncover the audio beneath a rather loud het. ON 1089, I could barely hear audio with my Kchibo D96L with the clip lead from the Bog loosely wrapped around it. Up until I left the beach at 0030Z, on both rx's, I heard clear audio on 1521 Duba and 585 Spain with audio on the Kchibo both on and off the BOG from Spain. I ticked off hets of varying intensity on the E1 at 549, 774, 981,909, 945, 1089, 1341 and 1548. 73, Gil Tybee Island, GA 500' BOG, E1, D96L ___ 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
