Re: [IRCA] MN TA audio 0n 783 at 0215 UTC who?
1215. and 1268.9992 are the carriers heard here at 0430UT; 1215 is the beefier but still quite weak. 782.9998 shows an occasional trace here, George, but only using Spectran to "see" it. I believe your times are too early for Mauritania (can any east coaster verify its sign on time? EMWG says 0830UT, //4845, and s/off is given as 0100UT), but the carrier might be there a lot earlier.Can you figure out what time it starts to fade out? That might give you an idea of where the transmitter could be. best wishes, Nick At 03:23 13-10-11, you wrote: Here in Victoria, I can see 1215 with a weak carrier.

Re: [IRCA] 1620 South Bend format change?
Yep, Marc, it's South Bend. Format change took place on September 23rd, according to Wikipedia, and several DXers have reported it to various listservers in the past few weeks. CLs still seem to be WDND. With 1490 in South Bend now silent, there are no local all-sports stations on AM in a market where sports is a pretty big thing. 73, Rick Dau South Omaha, Nebraska From: Marc DeLorenzo To: a...@lists.wtfda.info Cc: irca@hard-core-dx.com Sent: Wednesday, October 12, 2011 7:20 AM Subject: [IRCA] 1620 South Bend format change?

[IRCA] TP for 12 Oct 2011 from Victoria: China
Listened this morning from 13:36 to 14:28. Compared to other mornings, my observations were quite different than Nick's DX Fishbarrel. SF 130 A 4 K (12:00) 1. No space weather last and predicted for next 24 hours. Whereas Nick seemed to be picking up the first tier Japanese stations well, mine were rather moribund. Instead, I was getting some pretty darn good reception on some Chinese frequencies, at the same time that Nick was not getting much if any signal. Go figure. My North corner fed loop did the bulk of the work this morning. The highlight was CNR1 on 639, often at 9 level. No DU activity I could hear. A definite dawn enhancement to Asia only today. As always, a "6" unless otherwise noted: LW: 153: barely a 6, 279: 6.5 529: SQM back this morning at 7 558, 567: both 6.5 at 14:06 594: missed the boat totally this morning! 603: 6.5 at 14:09 612, 621 639: 9 level CNR 1 at 14:15. 8 level earlier at 13:41, and 7 at 14:10 675, 711: 6 level at 14:10 747: 7.5 level JJ at 14:13 756: 8 level CNR1 at 14:14, // 639 765 774: 7 level JJ at 13:46 819 828: 7 level JJ at 13:49 846, 855: 6 level 864: 6.5 936 945: 7.5 level CNR 1 at 14:18 //639 954, 963 (latter would be good except for splatter 972: 8 level KK.

[IRCA] Alberta TPs for 12 Oct 2011
Much more of an Asian focus this morning ,than nearly any other morning this season. No DUs reached audio, and only a couple of the carriers were probably DU. On the other hand, quite a number of TP carriers and the following in audio: Japan: 567, 594, 693, 747, 774, 828 S.Korea: 972, 1566 China: 1206 The Chinese popped up to audio level just for a couple of minutes, around 1330, and the Koreans were a bit spotty. The Japanese on the other hand, were mostly already at audio level when I first tuned in at 1240, and stayed that way for over an hour. Regarding TAs tonight, I did notice carriers on 1215, 1548, and 1575 a bit earlier on, but nothing at present (0400). 73, Nigel Pimblett Dunmore, AB ___ 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

Hello All, This morning's Asiatic TP conditions were nothing to shout about here, at least on medium wave. Occasional good audio from the big guns on 594, 657, 747, 936, 972 and 1134 kHz didn't stick around for long, and despite a 729 kHz station trying to get through the Vancouver splatter (apparently Chinese), most of the second-tier Asians were missing in action. Longwave DX was a little more vibrant, with 279-Radio Rossii having some real strength for the first time in quite a while (Russian music at 1312). 189 and 234 kHz Radio Rossii stations also were at fair strength around 1315, and 164-Mongolia was back with its usual threshold-level audio (female voice speech at 1300, // 4895 kHz which was also at a very poor level). 73 and Good DX, Gary DeBock Tecsun PL-380 Ultralight + 12" LW and 8" MW FSL antennas ___ 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
