Re: [IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 9-12
Hello All, For anyone with superior Asian language identification skills (Korean or Japanese) able to listen to the entire 729 kHz MP3 from the TP-DXing session this morning (2.48 MB, just over 2 minutes), it has been uploaded to _http://www.mediafire.com/?d0k54axtour55v5_ (http://www.mediafire.com/?d0k54axtour55v5). The recording was made through 730-CHMJ splatter using a modified Ultralight radio, and is not exactly high fidelity. The language of the female speaker (under the splatter) is either Korean or Japanese, and informed opinions would be appreciated.. 73, Gary DeBock (in Puyallup, WA) In a message dated 9/12/2010 10:57:12 P.M. Pacific Daylight Time, d1028g...@aol.com writes: Hi Bruce, Thanks for listening to the 729 kHz MP3. The lady is speaking so quickly that it's tough to be 100% sure of the language, and even though my first inclination was Korean, there was no Pyongyang BS parallel to check at the time. You could be right about possible Japanese. The 729 kHz clip was only a short portion of the 2-minute MP3, and I'll review it again for more clues, and send you the whole clip if you like. Last October I had China dominant and a presumed NK on this frequency during a rare 729 kHz strong signal, and even though I've seen many reports of Japan on 729, it's never been heard here. In any case, it's kind of a moral victory for me to get either station here in Puyallup on Ultralights, with the CHMJ splatter blanketing the frequency 99% of the time here :-) I'll be happy either way! 73, Gary In a message dated 9/12/2010 8:00:00 P.M.

First 531 is JJ, not Tagalog. We usually hear the NHK1 station there. 657 is fabulous. Usually heard with a buzzy transmitter or jamming, but pretty clear today. 792 was difficult for me, but I see that Bruce figured it out. 837 is a mish-mash, but I do believe that the predominant station is Radio Sonshine. Listen long enough, and they'll give IDs. Also likely CC cochannel. As for 1161, again lovely signal, but I'm not 100% convinced it's JJ. I have trouble distinguishing KK from JJ. The JJ stations on 1161 are all low power 0.1 kW NHK1 stations. I've heard these,but they are a tough catch. MBC in Korea is listed as 10 kW. ?More likely?

[IRCA] KNAK-FM 520 UT
** U S A. KNAK reception using FM mode on 520 Khz Glenn, I have been receiving a lot of QRM/hash centered on 520 KHz, at night. I could tell it was voice but, very garbled. Been there for at least a week that I know of. Heard it trying for the Bermuda NDB on 526, anticipating another BCB DX season. Tonight, I switched to FM mode, and I am getting good, but overdeviating, FM reception of a station that is fading in and out from very good readability to being just "hash". It is a station carrying "IRN/USA Radio Network". No station ID discernible at the bottom of the 0600Z hour; was in a fade or didn't ID. Been hearing this for several days...but tonight is the first time I had the idea to switch to FM --- duh! On fade downs, I can hear the INE NDB through the programming. My info: I have been a ham since 1966, and long time SWL, BCB and below listener. Using an ICOM IC-756PROIII and a couple of different HF horizontal Vee antennas for reception. Also have a 30 vertical, but reception is nil compared to the wire antennas, needless to say. I'm in Logandale, NV, a very rural area, with a very low noise floor and a long way from any powerhouse AMers, and the nearby FMers are all music type stations, none up with this "IRN/USA" stuff. I tried going through my Palomar Engineers 4 meg up converter; no change. Any ideas? Is this a problem with my station, or anybody else hearing this anomalous "FM broadcast" on 520 kHz? Not receiving any AM or FM stations currently carrying the program on "normal" channels. [P.S.]: Breaking News! Just got an ID. It's KNAK, in Delta, Utah. ID was at 0700Z. Guess I need to call their engineers? Nominally on 540 AM, but really putting in a good signal here on 520 FM. I can't tell you why or how, but, it is --- TKS 73, (Don DeCaria, NF7R, Logandale, NV, 89021, 0702 UT Sept 13, DX LISTENING DIGEST) Don, Very interesting. So are they also heard on 540 at all? If not, I guess the transmitter is very much out of whack funxioning in FM mode 20 kHz off (Glenn to Don, via DXLD) Glenn, Tks for the response. They were not heard on 540 here, just usual mishmash of stations on that channel at night, but sharp listening did not detect them at all, only on 520 FM. Nil heard this AM in daylight, of course, and only a southern Utah outlet on 540, as usual. 73, (Don DeCaria, 1530 UT, ibid.) Don, There is no other 540 in Utah; Delta is in west central Utah, about 200 miles from you NE of Las Vegas toward Mesquite close to the NV/UT/AZ border. KNAK is 1000 watts day, supposedly only 13 watts at night, both non-direxional. I expect that is also what you are getting in the daytime, but back on 540 (Glenn Hauser, ibid.) KNAK 540: HS FB 2005. Sometimes stays on day power at night due to chronic xmtr malfunctions 10/08 (Tim Hall, CA, ABDX via DXLD) ___ 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] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 9-13
Hello All, It was another good Asiatic TP morning here, with the first all-time new TP logged here from the new DX season. To investigate mysteries on 729, 1053 and other frequencies, I switched over to the 9' sided PVC tuned passive loop this morning. WWF wrestling experience is helpful in handling this monster box loop, but it immediately made a difference in sorting out the TP mysteries. A TP was back on 729 kHz this morning in 730-CHMJ splatter, this time with Japanese at a good level. It was immediately identified from the 594 kHz parallel as JOCK in Nagoya, an all-time new TP here (thanks, Bruce). This may have been yesterday's 729 mystery station, but will keep reviewing yesterday's MP3 for confirmation. 1053 kHz was checked repeatedly with the 9' loop this morning, but the Jammer was overpowering at S9+, drowning out the competition. Other frequencies like 603, 738 and 891 kHz had interesting TP mixes, but there wasn't enough time to sort them all out. For those curious about the appearance of a 9' sided PVC box loop (and the relatively puny DXer), a photo is posted at _http://www.mediafire.com/i/?jraw1yly2ff_ (http://www.mediafire.com/i/?jraw1yly2ff) The following were heard on a C.Crane SWP Slider model (7.5" loopstick) and 9' PVC tuned passive loop in the back yard: 558 JOCR Kobe, Japan Good Japanese music and conversation, 1307 585 JOPG Kushiro, Japan Fair-good Japanese NHK1 program, 1309 594 JOAK Tokyo, Japan Very strong with Japanese conversation, 1308 603 (TP-Mix) Korean speech (presumed HLSA) and music (presumed China) fighting it out at a fair-good level around 1319; no clear winner 639 CNR1 Beijing, China Fair signals with Chinese speech and music, 1314 648 VOR Razdolnoye, Russia Fair with Chinese external program, 1315 657 Pyongyang, N.

Saul: I've never logged `em either, not even in the old days from Michigan. What's more, my daughter goes to college at Houghton, NY, and I can't pick `em up on the car radio in Houghton or Cuba at less than fifty miles, while the Wellsville NY on 790 does just fine both places. I have wondered if they're off. I can't imagine anything with 1 kw on 600 getting out that badly.

This was interesting, I corresponded with Al Tobia out in California about KNAK on or about 520 about a year ago. He was getting it and after numerous attemps I never got it here in Colorado. Can't find an email for Al right now so if someone sees this pass it on to him. I may try some taping tonight to see what I get 73 Wayne Heinen Quoting Glenn Hauser : ** U S A. KNAK reception using FM mode on 520 Khz Glenn, I have been receiving a lot of QRM/hash centered on 520 KHz, at night. I could tell it was voice but, very garbled. Been there for at least a week that I know of. Heard it trying for the Bermuda NDB on 526, anticipating another BCB DX season. Tonight, I switched to FM mode, and I am getting good, but overdeviating, FM reception of a station that is fading in and out from very good readability to being just "hash". It is a station carrying "IRN/USA Radio Network". No station ID discernible at the bottom of the 0600Z hour; was in a fade or didn't ID. Been hearing this for several days...but tonight is the first time I had the idea to switch to FM --- duh! On fade downs, I can hear the INE NDB through the programming. My info: I have been a ham since 1966, and long time SWL, BCB and below listener. Using an ICOM IC-756PROIII and a couple of different HF horizontal Vee antennas for reception. Also have a 30 vertical, but reception is nil compared to the wire antennas, needless to say. I'm in Logandale, NV, a very rural area, with a very low noise floor and a long way from any powerhouse AMers, and the nearby FMers are all music type stations, none up with this "IRN/USA" stuff. I tried going through my Palomar Engineers 4 meg up converter; no change. Any ideas? Is this a problem with my station, or anybody else hearing this anomalous "FM broadcast" on 520 kHz? Not receiving any AM or FM stations currently carrying the program on "normal" channels. [P.S.]: Breaking News! Just got an ID. It's KNAK, in Delta, Utah. ID was at 0700Z. Guess I need to call their engineers? Nominally on 540 AM, but really putting in a good signal here on 520 FM.

They were not heard on 540 here, just usual mishmash of stations on that channel at night, but sharp listening did not detect them at all, only on 520 FM.

Re: [IRCA] What is KWEI 1260 Idaho night power now?
That is what KWEI was running last year, and their 60 watts was rarely heard. Now, if at 360 watts, they pretty much block the freq off the Eastern beverage. I am getting some other EE station QRMing them, but the signal is stil S9+20 on the R8. 73, Patrick Patrick Martin Seaside Oregon "Come visit us for the 2010 IRCA convention held Sept 24-26 at the Inn At Seaside." ___ 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
