[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Early Morning TP's for 11-8
Hello All, With both the local weather and the TP conditions seemingly entering a deep freeze here, DXing was attempted at 0900 UTC with a 3' homemade bedside loop, and hopes of strong TP's during the Asian sunset. As is usual during this period, signals were up and down, and required some serious patience before anything strong stepped out of the TP pack. Because of the awkward local hour, though (0100), patience is usually hard to come by. Around 0920 five stations were fading in and out with audio, namely 594-JOUK, 657-Pyongyang (strong warbling carrier, but puny audio), 747-JOIB, 972-HLCA and 1134-JOQR. These five stations played hide-and-seek until around 0945, when the game became too inconvenient to continue. Only these five seemed to make it to audio-- the lesser TP's stayed at weak carrier level. Of the five, 594-JOAK seemed to have the best signal, with this recording of a lady announcer at 0922 UTC. _http://www.mediafire.com/?wmwejidqjnk_ (http://www.mediafire.com/?wmwejidqjnk) After this mediocre DXing session, a band check was made at 1510 UTC, during which the previous five TP's never seemed close to audio. So perhaps the Asian sunset period really did have the propagation edge this morning, although it certainly wasn't anything to shout about. After considering the entire process, I'm still having trouble believing I was chasing DX like 594-JOAK, and even recording it. I guess it shows what happens when the demise of the Asian TP season causes withdrawal symptoms :-) 73, Gary DeBock Spotting receiver: Modified ICF-2010 (30 loopstick) Main receiver: Modified C.Crane SWP ultralight (7.5 Slider loopstick + CFJ455K5 filter) 36 collapsible-frame PVC loop ___ 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] Finally Back on the South Prairie
Just a warning that we finally made it back to the South Prairie portion known as Stillwater, OK. When we left Orcas Island, Washington a week ago minus about three hours, we thought that we might actually make the shortest run to Oklahoma down thru Salt Lake and Cheyenne. Our first overnight in Portland allowed us to look at single digit lows in southern Wyoming and turned us to our official Winter Route which basically is, Down I-5, straight south to Bakersfield and turn left which takes us through central Arizona and in through Amarillo to northcentral Oklahoma. When we got to Needles on the CA/AZ border, we heard of a nasty snow storm in Eastern NM, running as far south as Houston, so we diverted even further South, having a nice reunion with Linda's ASU nursing school classmates in Phoenix and then on thru Tucson, El Paso, Midland-Odessa and Ft. Worth to see the grandchildren then a carefully-timed run straight north to Oklahoma. A 3.5 day 2,100 mile trip turned into a 7-day 3,000 mile trip, but we are back in Stillwater, never once driving on icy roads... and having seen some good friends and family. Of course, here in Oklahoma, we got to freezing temperatures (for highs) and tomorrow night we'll see single digits. Thursday and Friday should warm into the 40s and I'll put up parts of the Wellbrook array then and morf into a serious ultralight domestic MW DXer once again. While on this highway odyssey, I worked on three MW articles that will soon see the light of day: Using the NRC Pattern Book as a Serious DX Tool Adding an Integral Outside Antenna Port to the PL-310 and the PL-380 Having Fun with Universal's Portable Radio Stands So, we are back in Oklahoma (Monday at noon) and getting READY TO RADIO!

Re: [IRCA] Finally Back on the South Prairie
John, Glad you made it back safely, even though you had to drive a bit out of your way. Here on the North Coast, we got down to 18 last night! Very cold temps with the Arctic blast out of Canada. No snow, but cold temps and low humidity. We hit 33 yesterday. Today around 35-38 is forecasted But it will start warming back up in the late week. Take care and have a wonderful Christmas Season. 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

The Pittsburg CA station is not all that strong in S.F. Carries // programming coming from the 1010 San Francisco station. 990 is directed so as to cover Sacramento area. Dunno how much of their signal makes it to the northwest. We also get the Santa Barbara Mexicali stations here in S.F. on a regular basis, through KATD. Don K. S.F.

Well, no Algeria here tonight, but finally got something out of 963 which identifies it as CRI I think.Could hear a woman talking, followed by children chanting, then a man talking at 0450UT, and it was all followed a few seconds later on a Swedish receiver on GlobalTuners, tuned to 963 (good strong signal). At times the talk could have been perceived as having a Russian inflection. I haven't formally logged Finland-963 before, as no SW parallel, no webstream, no ID on the hour, not enough for a report, but I think I'll settle for this.

[IRCA] TP for 8 Dec from Victoria, BC
Had to go to work this morning so didn't get much listening done; seemed a little better than the last couple of mornings, though still pretty drab. Northerly conditions are improving elsewhere, Bill Whitacre in D.C. reporting TP carriers, and Martin Hall in Scotland hearing NHK stations again at 1320UT. Best signal was VoA-1575 at 1430UT, quite listenable, but the Japanese big guns weren't at all that good strength. Oddments were some audio traces on 1539 around 1520UT, which seemed Asian rather than over the pole, and 738 fading up with mx at 1438UT; hard to read though, as there were 4 carriers spread over about 4 Hz, all beating with each other. 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
