[IRCA] New URL station 4/5/14

2014-04-05 Thread richa...@perryisp.net
I heard another new station on my ultralight Sony SRF-T615 radio this morning 
(4/5/14).

840 kHz KVJY, Pharr TX (5 kW at 1121 km/696 mi), broadcasting música romántica, 
at 1213-1252 GMT.  There were frequent "Ocho Cuarenta ah EM-meh" 
anuncios.  ID in English, "AM 840 KVJY", at 1237.  The signal peaked to good 
strength occasionally with slight QRM from KWDF.  URL station #1037 (barefoot 
#1023).

Also heard briefly under 1080 KRLD, at 1316-1319 GMT, was an unidentified 
station (possibly KGVY in Arizona) with barely audible music including song 
"Only 
the Lonely".   

Good DX.

Congrats. I'm trying to remember what 840 in Pharr was before it was 
KVJY/Spanish...ms

[IRCA] Fwd: [mwcircle] MW this morning

2014-04-05 Thread Nick Hall-Patch
For those struggling with TP's this morning, 
here's a check of TA's from Belgium (via MW 
Circle list), using a Super Kaz antenna and 
Perseus, and not even at the coast.   Really nice sound quality...


best wishes,

Nick

[IRCA] KWFM 1330 Tucson back on

2014-04-05 Thread Bob Coomler


"Star 1330" as before with their quasi-1980's hits programming.  I've been 
listening for an hour and still haven't heard anything I recognized.  An awful 
playlist.  It was only a matter of time before they returned, but I was hoping 
for an upgrade to something better like Techno Rap or All P.J. Proby All Of The 
Time.

Where are the 1330 studios now?  About 50 years ago when I was a kid 
growing up in the Flowing Wells area of Tucson, 1330 was KMOP Country 
Western.  And if I remember right, the studio and the transmitter was 
located on the south side of Grant, just east of what is now I-10. Not 
far from that place that has all the cattle painted on the concrete 
block wall around it, but across the screet.


KWFM was Tucsons first "Undergound FM" station.  They went on the air 
early 1970, semi patterned after San Francisco's KMPX, KSAN and later 
KFAT.  I miss KFAT a lot.

[IRCA] TP 5 Apr. Victoria version

2014-04-05 Thread Nick Hall-Patch
Actually a fairly lively morning right from 1130UT, though nothing 
too astonishing that was identifiable.   A couple of tentative DUs 
turned up, and a mystery carrier on 908.984 kHz, quite strong at 
times, no audio, fading up and down, but still there at 1400UT, and a 
few seconds later disappeared.




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



Not quite, though HLAZ and HLCA came close



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


774 JOUB EE lessons 1322UT
972 HLCA man and woman in KK 1246UT
1566 HLAZ man in JJ 1245UT


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


828 JOBB man in JJ 1242UT
891 JOHK.  Man in JJ, quite insistent, //594 which was weaker, 1323UT.


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) :


576 unID.  Slow contemplative instrumental mx 1316UT
594 unID.  Rollicking vocal mx and woman talking, but maybe DU EE? 
1231UT; JOAK heard later //891
702 2BL?  Two men talking, one quite laid back, DU EE inflection, 
other more insistent

747 JOIB?  Woman w/JJ inflection after mx, 1130UT
954 JOKR? Man talking JJ inflection
1053 KK jammer 1232UT
1287 JOHR? Lively vocal mx, rather countryish, 1223UT...

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


567 603 738 846 909 1008 1323  1332 1593


best wishes,

Nick
