Re: [IRCA] TP 26 Mar, Victoria version
Hi Nick, 603 HLSA. Mr. Presley inquiring whether I was lonesome tonight 1334UT, announcer in KK reiterated the question in passable EE (http://www3.telus.net/public/shallpat/listen/HLSA%2020140326_1334.wav); although subject to erratic fading, this was one of the better signals for the next 15 minutes. It's nice to know that HLSA's unusual signal yesterday morning made it to Victoria, also. Thanks for posting the MP3 of the Elvis song. Even if we might not be on the same DXing planet, at least yesterday morning we seemed to be in the same universe. 73, Gary -Original Message- From: Nick Hall-Patch n...@ieee.org To: Mailing list for the International Radio Club of America irca@hard-core-dx.com Sent: Wed, Mar 26, 2014 10:20 pm Subject: [IRCA] TP 26 Mar, Victoria version It was sunrise enhancement or nothing this morning.

[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 3-27
Hello All, The Asians this morning weren't very energetic, but a moderate sunrise enhancement boost raised up a fairly good variety of low band Asian mainland stations around 1330. 603-HLSA was again the star of the morning here, although it never managed a monster signal like yesterday. The session started off at 1310 with 594-JOAK (fair), 603-HLSA (poor), 693-JOAB (fair), 738-BEL2 (poor), 774-JOUB (fair) and 1566-HLAZ (fair to good) already in audio. Increasing daylight around 1330 also boosted several other low band Asians up to a fair level in and out, including 558-HLQH, 648-VOR and 657-Pyongyang. Unfortunately that was about as good as it got for those stations, which slid slowly down into the noise around 1335. Yesterday's star performer 603-HLSA stuck around at the best level of all the Asians this morning, managing fair audio during peaks from 1325-1345. The high band sounded pretty dreary, with only 1566-HLAZ able to produce very brief good audio around 1330 (the other high band regulars 1503-JOUK, 1575-VOA and 1593-CNR1 had ghostly signals at best). Unlike yesterday 603-HLSA had anemic signals for most of the morning, although it did once again avoid any Chinese competition from the presumed Hulun Buir station. Best signal of a rather lackluster m! orning was from the usual overachiever 603-HLSA at 1343, with Korean pop music reaching a fair level. 603 HLSA Namyang, S.

Re: [IRCA] Oklahoma TP DX 3/27/14
Gary: I listened on 603 kHz at sunrise hearing nothing other than QRM from 600 WMT. Both 972 and 1566 were silent this morning. This time of year, JOUB's signal tends to fade out before local sunrise, so there is no enhancement.

It`s already atop my nearest, KNSS Wichita, whose ID I hear at 0503 UT; then at 0504 UT sweep tones start from KCKM. I monitor and record the entire semihour, as KCKM remains atop with only a few brief fades. Consists of alternating sweep tones, always from low pitch to high, busy signals [rather: ``phone off the hook`` as Rick Dau mentioned], fire-alarm siren bells; Morse code IDs and other brief DX messages I am yet to copy in detail until I recheck the digital recording; ``on the radio`` jingles; musical piece apparently a TV theme I don`t quite recognize. I logged the repeated times for all these to the minute; there were *no* voice IDs during the test; why not? As the DX test started late, it also ended a bit late, 0533 UT back to another voice ID like at 0500 UT and power drops as music resumes with ``West Virginia``. Tnx to Bob Souza for running this test, after offering to do so in an unsolicited email I received after logging it last April, and then arranged by Paul Walker, who also supplied the test content. I understand it got out very well across the continent and even to Europe. KCKM did not have a QSL card last year, so I will be reporting for one offered now. Turning on the radio again at 1320 UT March 22, still tuned to 1330, there`s KCKM atop on regular schedule, discussion of when hereford cattle were introduced to Albany, Shackelford County, which is not around Monahans but northeast of Abilene; then about Robert E Lee at some camp around the Civil War. Program is `Cowboy Corner`, probably syndicated; plug for Western Heritage Awards, April 12 at the Cowboy Museum in OKC (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST) Hi Bob, Many tnx for running the DX test, which I gather has been quite successful. I`m glad that our contact eventually led to it. Also, I wonder if you have started C-QUAM stereo as you said you planned to last year. And could you clarify whether the antenna is 5/8 or halfwave?

Re: [IRCA] 1410 unID
News-talk at the very start, for sure. And it's a W-call. My hunch from Alberta you'd hear WIZM LaCrosse WI, but this doesn't sound at all like that. WCMT in Martin TN. Not quite, either IMO. It sounds like WCVE to me, but nothing even remotely close to that, that I can find. WDOV DE seems outrageously far...

Thanks all who took a listen, and IDed as WIZM. Not actually a new one unfortunately, though not logged for quite a few years.
