[IRCA] 1710 pirate again
Just spent 45 minutes listening to the 1710 pirate, no sign of ident, finally stopped recording--time for bed. Signal has little fading but not a great signal, maybe 80-90% understanding it. Mostly plays 60's oldies with occasional very short voice into the next song. Occasional humorous ads, possibly old original ads. One that played several times about buying a GE Superradio on eBay (since it's no longer being made) since that radio is good for superior AM reception. Another humorous ad about a lady with very large feet who needs to find mens's brown loafers in size 11 to fit her feet. Maybe eventually someone else will hear this and can give some more input about where it might come from. Mid west or west coast, since little fading on the signal? Best on my E/W longwire. 73, Steve NE Oregon ___ 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] 1710 pirate again
Steve, Not hearing anything on 1710 here in Salmon Creek. That oldies format sounds a lot better than the programming on the radio stations that are in this area. I have to tune 640 KFI and listen to Bill Handle for stimulating radio. Maybe this oldies station can plug my GE super radio when I place it on eBay soon.

[IRCA] John Bryant's NRD-535D / Timewave DSP / Portable Case Receiver Setup on Ebay
Was I ever surprised today to see the late John Bryant's portable JRC NRD-535D rackmount case setup for auction on Ebay. This project of interconnected NRD-535D, twin Timewave DSP-9+ units, S-meter, and audio switching network inside of a portable rackmount case was John's primary DXpedition receiver before he got hooked on the Winradio SDR receivers. I spent many hours on Grayland DXpeditions with John, sitting across from him and this fine receiver and accessory setup: http://cgi.ebay.com/JRC-NRD-535-D-Receiver-Timewave-DSP9-anvil-case-/270677363746 The Austin, Texas seller says he purchased the equipment at a radio auction, but has decided not to keep it. I contacted the seller to let him know about John Bryant and the background of this one-of-a-kind setup. The receiver has a couple of Kiwa filter modules inside, and I am almost certain it has *all *other Kiwa modifications for the NRD-535D, too. I remember that John had spoken of sending it to Craig at Kiwa Electronics for full house mods. The white/translucent rectangles that can be seen stuck on the receiver's main tuning knob are chunks of heavy duty, sticky-backed snap fastener material. I'm sure these can be peeled off and the remaining goo cleaned off satisfactorily. John used the fastener material to hold his spin wheel attachment for easier tuning. I don't believe this flat plate with finger hole (which extended beyond the tuning knob) is included with the auction.

She said it was in her cart, but she didn't put it there. Neither did I. I don't know a lot about this radio, but she said she could easily send it back if I don't want it. I haven't opened it up yet and I wanted some input before I do. Is it worth keeping? I know that's open for debate, but I thought I would just throw the question out there just like that. Should I have her send it back for something similar? I already have a G8. Do I need something from TECSUN or the like? I have no idea what she paid for it, so if there are any suggestions to be had, please keep it in a similar price range. Thanks for all of your help.

I got an email today from Michigan DXer Tim Tromp, who has heard the same 1710 pirate station I've been hearing the past couple of nights. He heard it back in November and posted some audio clips at his blog at http://midx.wordpress.com/2010/11/06/am-1710-the-big-q-oldies-heard-well-this-morning/ One of them is the same GE Superadio commercial that I heard last night. He mentions Rob Ross in Ontario also heard this pirate in September. Tim's audio clips are much better reception than I've heard--it would appear this pirate is indeed located farther east. 73, Steve NE Oregon ___ 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] John Bryant's NRD-535D / Timewave DSP / Portable Case Receiver Setup on Ebay
Sigh! I remember Linda (John's wife) telling me that she didn't get very much from an auction outfit for a lot of John's hobby equipment. Presumably this fellow purchased it at auction, perhaps for a fraction of it's true value. It's a shame that Linda didn't ask Guy (the master of wonderful eBay auctions, which tend to do very well because of the great presentation!) to host some of John's equipment. I'll follow it with interest! In recent years, John's preferred rig was his WinRadio 313e. I don't think he used this one much anymore.Walt Salmaniw, Victoria, BC On Thu, Dec 9, 2010 at 12:47 AM, Guy Atkins d...@guyatkins.com wrote: Was I ever surprised today to see the late John Bryant's portable JRC NRD-535D rackmount case setup for auction on Ebay.

Re: [IRCA] more on 1710 pirate
Steve, My gut feeling is one of those Boston area pirates. I heard one a couple years back and e mailed the GM. I don't see why we cannot hear them on a cear frequency, as back in the 80s I heard several East Coast TIS stations running 10 watts and less. 73, Patrick Patrick Martin Seaside OR 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
