Re: [IRCA] UNID help?

2011-11-25 Thread Steve Francis 

WRAQ is not a licensed AM call per the FCC website.  It does have a Western NC 
pedigree, having once been used by  Asheville-1380 and Brevard-1240.  I suspect 
that is the reason for the tower site hits.

You probably heard WKJV 1380 or WZGM 1350, or whatever 1350 is this week.

Asheville, NC is one area I knew a little bit about.. so i thought
something was up.

Even though the proposed tower for 1490 is in Asheville, it's proposed COL
is Woodfin.

This 1490 has no call letters, NO CP.. isnt even licensed yet.

George,

That can't be it.

It is JUST an APPLICATION, doesn't even have CALL letters and not even had

Hi All:

What about CJMR - 1320?  They're licensed to Mississauga and though they're now 
100% ethnic, I used to hear them here in English in the AM doing local nx.  
Apparently there wasn't enough local interest to keep up that part of their 
program schedule.  I suppose the new 960 could have a fair bit of power, since 
the two old 960s in Ontario (Kingston and Cambridge) are long gone to FM.  But 
wouldn't a decent power level for this one tend to draw it into the Toronto 
metro market?

[IRCA] Alberta TPs for 25 Nov 2011

2011-11-25 Thread Nigel Pimblett 
   Just like Walt observed, things were down a bit here also, after 
yesterday's good morning.   In fact when I first listened at about 1400 
things were very poor, with only 774 at audio level, but a number of 
signals jumped up to audio level around 1430.


Todays audio:

594 - Japan, poor
747 - Japan, poor
774 - Japan, fr-good
828 - Japan, fr-good
1422 - Japan, poor
1593 - China, fair

No, seriously.. I'm asking.. you contradicted yourself there.

if they're Part 15, it's legal.

if they are running multiple Part 15 transmitters slaved together at one
location or multiple transmitters synched together across different
locations, that's legal.

Part 15 AM deals with individual power of each transmitter, not multiple
transmitters together.

[IRCA] TP for 24 November, 2011 from Victoria: Not a bad morning!

2011-11-25 Thread Walter Salmaniw 
Sorry to be a day late on this one, but had to rush out the door early.
Listened from 15:03 to 15:16 UTC only.   I was pleased with the improvement
on Thursday morning here in Victoria.  This season, I haven't followed
Alaskans, but ran across an excellent, strong ID for KINY 800 at 15:03, way
over any closer domestics.  Didn't check for any of the others due to time
constraints.  SF 140, A 6, K (12:00) 3.  No space weather.  "6" unless
otherwise noted:

529:  7 level SQM
747:  7 level NHK2
774:  7.5 level NHK2
792, 801
828:  7 level NHK2

Pt. 15 type power on 1710. Just a little background, St. Paul is rich in the 
Hmong community and have operated a Pt. 15 station on most of the x-band

Hi All:

What about CJMR - 1320?  They're licensed to Mississauga and though they're now 
100% ethnic, I used to hear them here in English in the AM doing local nx.  
Apparently there wasn't enough local interest to keep up that part of their 
program schedule.  I suppose the new 960 could have a fair bit of power, since 
the two old 960s in Ontario (Kingston and Cambridge) are long gone to FM.  But 
wouldn't a decent power level for this one tend to draw it into the Toronto 
metro market?

slick jingles, parady oldie songs, old nostalgic clips of WLS, WABC and

[IRCA] Antenna success, mostly...

2011-11-25 Thread Tim Hills 
I've been working on a remote controlled ferrite antenna that has at 
least some unidirectional characteristics.


My latest attempt is in the attic over the garage and is working better 
than I expected so far. I had to rush it a bit since I start a job that 
will require a lot of travel and hours on 12/01 and probably won't have 
time to play with it again until late April.


The "rod" is a composite, 1 8" rod of about 400 permeability and a 5" 
rod of ~125 permeability in line with a 1" gap between them surrounded 
by 6 6" rods ~125 Perm. All rods are 3/8" diameter and overall length is 
14". 28t CT 100/44 Litz for the tuned winding and a 12t 40/44 pickup 
winding. Rotator (and 2 of the 6" rods) were salvaged from a dead 
Ray-Jefferson ADF.


Varactor tuning and a preamp using low noise/high IMD immunity dual gate 
MOSFETS. Balanced RF to the receiver is fed through dual RG-6 that was 
hooked to the sat. dish with dual grounding block attached to a Copper 
drain pipe that runs under most of the basement. Balun on the receiver 
side matches it to the unbalanced 75Ohm input of the DX-440. Cheap IR 
surveillance camera mounted to the roof joist is my directional indicator.


The end with the 8" rod has a much deeper null than the the other. WNAX 
(5KW@54 miles) gets completely nulled on one side but still shows 5 bars 
on the 440 on the other. Locals at 1140 and 1320 still come through very 
strong even with power to the antenna shut off, the 440 has lousy 
shielding but the 6' between grounding block and balun is probably 
enough to pick them up. No noticeable intermod even with the strong 
locals and adjacent chan rejection is excellent, still some slop around 
1140 and 1320 but that could be partly the poor shielding on the 
receiver but I can tune out IBOC on the lower part of the band..


I left the regen/Q multiplier out for now and it doesn't have the 
ability to tilt. Both would improve the performance of the antenna but 
for now I'm just going to put an EM shield on it and call it good. Busy 
winter/spring and slack summer/fall for work so by the next fall DX 
opening I should be pretty well set up.


I'll see if I can find my vidcap card and post a demo to youtube showing 
the directional capability of this antenna. It's come a long way from 
the earlier version Rick got to play with.

OM in SS at ~85* (CHHA?) and OM in EE at ~75* (CJWI?) both null on the

Of course and much Spanish as I know he may have ID'd 5 times...
