[IRCA] TP 27 Jan, Victoria version

2014-01-27 Thread Nick Hall-Patch
In spite of Gary's observations, I had no sunrise enhancement here at 
all, and precious little action previous to sunrise either




pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, 
at least briefly):


1566 HLAZ woman in CC 1408UT, had been building to this since about 
1400UT, but didn't maintain it and eventually disappeared





Reasonable audio  at  times during the period (much of it 
understandable by a native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise):



738 Tahiti  man in FF 1354UT




not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or 
noise could be understood by a native speaker:


the above, 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) :


the above, passing through



Strongish het, no or "near imaginary"audio (either undermodulated or 
ravaged by splatter):


774 1575

(yes the antennas were still up when it got light...)

best wishes,

Nick

[IRCA] TP DX in Seattle on January 27

2014-01-27 Thread Bruce Portzer
As is usually the case, conditions here were much different than what 
Gary and Dennis reported.  HLAZ had a very good signal just before I 
left for work at 1430.  Unfortunately, that was it for the good signals 
today.  HLAZ fizzled out after 1500, there were basically no TP signals 
at all after about 1505 today, and no Asian audio was heard below 1550.  
I'm not sure what might have been heard before 1430 - I had the antenna 
switch in the wrong position until then.  But judging from how things 
were after 1430, I don't think I missed anything.


Good - mostly understandable by a native speaker
1566HLAZ, quite good 1427-1500 with talks by various people, 
occasional music.  Signal took a huge dive after 1500 and never returned.


Fair - a few words understandable by a native speaker
850KICY, ID by woman 1500 u/KHHO, then religious program

Poor - bits of unintelligible stuff in the noise and splatter
1557Chinese talk 1453, then music in domestic splatter
1575VOA, woman in Asian language 1431

Carriers - 972 1503 1593

[IRCA] Alberta TP/DU for 27 Jan 2014

2014-01-27 Thread Nigel Pimblett
   Not a very interesting morning, but as was mentioned, probably 
typical for the time of year.   Only Korea on 1566 provided decent audio 
today, a fair signal from about 1440 to 1500.  VoA had momments on 1575, 
but was generally very marginal.  Elsewhere, only carriers.

[IRCA] 930 WAUR - low power

2014-01-27 Thread amdxer


My semi-local WAUR 930 must have transmitter
problems.  The last few nights noted them with lower
than normal power.  Tonight it's worse, I can barely
hear them at 18 miles.  Might open up the frequency
in this area for others to hear something else.

Thanks, Paul Walker and Tom Jasinski! I logged it here, and like Tom says it 
must be at day facilities, it is coming in quite well. Programming is NBC 
Sports Network talk. New here!

It's sounding like our 1380 culprit may be WABH Bath, NY

People have been reporting odd noise and distortion on 1370 and 1390.

A friend in Cloquet, Minnesota (near Duluth) had his radio pointed east,
and said as sports programming started blaring so did a bunch of crosstalk
and nasty noise.

chasing down WABH.

I know I know, I should have a radio with a digital dial but I dont.

The indian language talk has been going on by several minutes by a
female... the signal is somewhat strong, very steady.. but fading alot.

There's a religious station under it, constantly but totally buried.
Turning Point with Dr David Jeremiah just ended, then a Tv station did the
radio stations weather forecast.

Any clue what Im hearing?

I contacted Westwood One Radio Networks and had their Adult Standards

question.

I am marking this one down as WPNH 1300 Plymouth, NH.

WSYD Mount Airy, NC and WCLG Morgantown, WV were both contacted... both

Good signal with sports and

[IRCA] Radio Kiribati 1440

2014-01-27 Thread Paul B. Walker, Jr.
To All:

For those interested... Here is a 1 hour aircheck from just after Christmas
2013 from Radio Kiribati 1440Khz. The aircheck features world news from
Radio Australia, local and regional news from Radio Kiribati and then their
sole hour of daily english programming, featuring country music. One
song they played was even requested by me.. Marie Osmond and Dan Seals..
"Meet Me In Montana".

http://www.onairdj.com/RadioKiribati.mp3

The aircheck is 60 minutes 59 seconds long, encoded at 128K Stereo. You are
more then welcome to share this link on your blogs, websites, email/print
newsletters, facebook or wherever else. I just want to share my love of the
hobby and help preserve a bit of radio history.

http://www.onairdj.com/RadioKiribati.mp3

I have gotten 3 airchecks from Radio Kiribati, each costing $10AUD or about
$8.75US... Very very very well worth it to me.

I spent 3 or 4 years trying to make headway and land a contact at Radio
Kiribati.. I finally did it last fall after trying so hard. .and that's
what makes these airchecks so valuable to me.

Warmest Regards,
Paul Walker

[IRCA] New features but donors needed

2014-01-27 Thread Radio Heritage Mail

January 28 2014

Hello

Now that 2014 is moving along, we need to tell you that we've had
only 6 donations in the past month, to be expected as thoughts and
concerns are elsewhere over the Christmas/New Year period.

The result is that we have to find $1,912 by the end of the month to
meet the overheads.

You'll find more new Retro Radio Dial features now online as we've
had some time to research them over the quiet time, and we've got
some more in the works. We'll do what we can to keep bringing more
features and content online this year, which is also our 10th
anniversary online.

Visits to the website www.radioheritage.net are up these past few
weeks, and we've been fielding a good number of the inquiries that
people make when their focus is on family and memories, and we
continue the work of protecting memorabilia and researching new
features and all the other unseen work that goes behind what we share.

We do need to find this $1,912 in the next few days, so if you can
make a donation towards these overheads right now, it will be very
welcomedall donations are acknowledged online and you can now
make smaller more regular donations for ongoing sustaining support.

Thanks so much for joining us again in 2014, and do enjoy the new
features we've recently added such as Retro Radio Dial Australia, New
Zealand & Pacific; South East Asia; South Asia; and Braziland
keep an eye out for more..

All best wishes for 2014

Re: [IRCA] 1390 kHz - odd noise

Playing back a

And I can hear the same thing right now live at 9:17 p.m. from my
location in the middle of Toronto.


And on 1380 WABH **does** seem to be unusually strong for 450
watts at night.


After further observations, I'm 95% convinced that the culprit is WABH, 
and 100% convinced that they are running day power/pattern at night.  
They have a huge signal here at the moment, dominating the channel most 
of the time, and the strength of the spurs on 1370/1390 appears to be 
strongly correlated with WABH's signal level.

No audio but some hints that there might be audio --
as usual, I did not stick around -- breakfast and work was calling...

Like the guys say, I need to put in more than 1 minute out on the balcony
OR fire up a Wellbrook --

[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 1-27

2014-01-27 Thread d1028gary


Hello All,
 
It was a pretty typical mid-winter doldrums session here as a mediocre sunrise 
enhancement boosted several low and high band Asian regulars up to anemic 
levels around 1535.
 
A very dreary band at 1500 started showing weak signs of life around 1515 as 
1566-HLAZ came out of the noise with fair signals in and out, peaking with good 
signals at around 1530 (as Dennis reported). This was the only fairly vibrant 
Asian signal for the entire session. On the high band 1575-VOA and 1593-CNR1 
also managed fair signals in and out of the domestic splatter around 1540. 
Unlike Dennis I did have a few low band TP's make anemic appearances, but you 
needed to be at the right place at the right time to catch their wispy audio. 
Around 1533 there was a ghostly mix on 603 with the deep-voiced Korean male 
(presumed HLSA) joining a Chinese female (presumed Hulun Buir), as well as very 
brief fade-ups from 594-JOAK and 648-VOR around the same general time. As usual 
the low band Asians bailed out first, leaving only 1566-VOA with any real audio 
by 1545. Overall it was a very forgettable morning, but actually fairly typical 
for a mid-winter session. After a couple of except!
 ional days recently (like 1-18 and 1-24), maybe we have developed some 
unrealistic expectations?
