[IRCA] early TA's in Alberta Aug 30
Just a heads up in case it turns into something... Just a bit after sunset, lots of hets and 1422 had had time pips at 0300 and reasonable audio, yl in german. Also 0303 yl in French on 1557. Was just checking out the new Eu beverage I installed today.. 2100 feet at 38 deg. Significantly better - more signal and less noise than the other 1000' Eu wire. 73 Don Lamont, Alberta [image: Company Logo] ___ 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

Minimalist DXing yielded quite a lot this morning... pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly): no Reasonable audio at times during the period (much of it understandable by a native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise): 774 and 576 came close at times not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could be understood by a native speaker: 576 2RN man talking DU English 1315UT; noted //792 and 621 at other times 594 JOAK man in Japanese 1307UT; weaker NHK pips had been noted at 1300UT 774 3LO woman in DU English 1250UT, noted //702 1251UT 891 5AN? woman talking to another woman on phone, DU English, 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) 612 4QR woman and man talking //702 1317UT 621 3RN lively jazz clarinet //576 and likely 846, 1313UT 702 2BL woman talking 1251UT //774 738 Tahiti? pop vocal 1200UT 792 4RN walking bass line //576 at 1317UT 828 JOBB NHK pips at 1300UT 846 2RN lively jazz clarinet, almost certainly //621 but this was weak and 621 was weak and splashy 1386 man talking 1137UT, too much splash to guess at language 1548 4QD w/ ABC news fanfare 1300UT, man talking Strongish het, no or near imaginary audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter) 855 864 1008 1035 1116 1323 1503 1512 1566 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
Re: [IRCA] XEQ 940
I noticed XEQ huge on my Tecsun ultralight at 1 am Saturday morning when I arrived at Burnt River for a quick overnight stay (am now back in Toronto), and that it seemed very much back on channel, where it's supposed to be. This will make 940 much more bearable to listen to if XEQ is truly fixed. Also had Mexico on 1060 and presumed with weak Spanish bubbling on 1110. I had to be up for a 9 am hike this morning so didn't work the dials much more than this. Cx are no doubt ramping up for the coming season.

Re: [IRCA] early TA's in Alberta Aug 30
That's pretty impressive after the upsets of the last couple of days Don. Nothing here so far, but will look for some sunrise at the transmitter activity, though I am lacking a Beverage antenna like yours. best wishes, Nick At 03:06 30-08-15, you wrote: Just a heads up in case it turns into something...
