Re: [IRCA] TP 8 Jul; Victoria version
Hi Walt, Nick, and Gary, I'm planning on DXing in Masset as well during this time frame (I'll be up there from July 19 to August 5, and if possible, DXing from July 20th onward). So it should be a good time to //. Glad to know that you'll be DXing in Masset during the Oregon cliff DXpeditions this month, Walt! Derek also plans to be checking the band in California, and I understand that the Yachats group plans to have three different antennas set up (near sea level, at the Highway 101 turnoff, and on top of 805' Cape Perpetua). Along with my own Ultralight DXpedition to the Rockwork cliff south of Cannon Beach, the coordinated event may end up being a propagation science bonanza. One comment on the cliffs being immune. To a certain degree, I can say the same about Masset. There have been many times when absolutely zilch was being heard in Victoria/WA, while I was having a great time hearing all sorts of exotic DX, like India and Bangladesh. Actually, Walt, your July 2011 DU-DXing results at Rose Spit provided the most detailed high-band New Zealand logging information that I've ever seen. I keep a copy of it on hand for reference during my Ultralight Cliffhanger DXpeditions, but since I almost always run out of live DXing time before investigating the high band Kiwis, there hasn't been any chance to chase them. 73, Gary ___ 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] TP 9 Jul; Victoria version
Not a great number of carriers, but did get a reasonable fade up on Tahiti 738 pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly): asking a bit much today reasonable audio at times during the period (much of it understandable by a native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise): 738 Tahiti reaching this level for a couple of minutes around 1206UT and 1213UT, woman in FF and into orchestral mx. Would have been quite readable without the splash not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could be understood by a native speaker: 738 passing through Burbles in the splatter and noise (if lucky, language might be guessed at by cadence of talk, or parallel established by changes in talk or music) : 774 man and woman talking 1155UT, too little audio for a guess at language Strongish het, no or near imaginaryaudio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter): 756 1008 1017 1035 1107 + SAH, 1116 best wishes, Nick ___ 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
