Chuck,

We have relatives in TN, and visit there often. In fact, we were there last 
week. If you have suspect stations that you’d like to have investigated, I’ll 
be happy to drive up to Tennessee and check.

Re: [IRCA] 1500khz Mystery Station--ROAD TRIP

2016-02-10 Thread Robert LaFore
The 1500 noise is stronger here, in Acworth GA tonight. I went out and 
repeated the  320 (magnetic N reference).


On the SDR, the noises are on either side of 1500, leading me to believe 
that this is not a spur from 1490 or 1510. This is someone on 1500.


In my 37 years as a broadcast engineer, I have encountered a few older 
transmitters that would "radiate" even when the high voltage was off. 
Normally this only goes a few miles, if it radiates at all. This 
typically goes away when the high voltage is "on". (So, the issue may 
not be apparent during the normal operation of the station.)


I do not think this has anything to do with WFED.

I suspect that it is someone with an older transmitter on 1500, they may 
be signing off, but the TX may continue to radiate some sort of trash. 
Given a relatively 'vacant' channel (relatively speaking---if there is 
such a thing anymore) a few dozen watts can travel a surprising distance 
at night


I have heard WPOT here "after hours", so could be them, or someone in W. 
Kentucky, maybe S. Illinois. Although WPOT seems a bit to far west from 
what I am seeing here.

[IRCA] TP 10 Feb Victoria version

2016-02-10 Thread Nick Hall-Patch
A little bit of enhancement near sunrise, a whole lot of nothing much 
earlier



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


only a little bit of enhancement


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



only a LITTLE bit of enhancement




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


738 Tahiti? pop music 1446UT
1566 HLAZ? (? &?) very erratic but sometimes peaked at this level 
with woman and man in Chinese 1445 through to 1510UT or 
thereabouts.  Sometimes it seemed like something else was breaking 
through as well.





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)


558 HLQH soft music 1459, woman talking, //603 and stronger; neither 
had much strength however

594 man mumbling 1505UT
603 HLSA soft music 1511UT //558 which my now was the weaker of the two
747 JOIB man talking, Japanese inflection 1512UT
972 woman talking 1449UT
1593 light music 1456UT, followed by man speaking with Chinese 
inflection; this too was in and out for about 15 minutes


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


567 774 1089 1098 1107 1143 1206 1215 1323 1359 1404 1413 1575

2016-02-10 Thread Les Rayburn
On the contrary, it’s not a DX poltergeist, aliens, or any other resident of 
the DX files. It’s also not WLAC. 

My guess is that it’s a daytime whose transmitter is malfunctioning. Most 
likely their engineering needs are met by a freelancer, and their signal is 
rarely, if ever monitored. These situations will only become more common as 
absentee ownership, satellite programming, and traveling engineers become ever 
more the norm. Plus no one listens to AM—and who would they complain to? It’s 
not like anyone is manning the phones at the studio.

[IRCA] 1500 Mystery *probably* not WBRI HOWEVER.....

2016-02-10 Thread Dave Hascall
Howdy,

I have been skimming over the emails concerning the mystery station on
1500.  Yes, it could be a daytimer so I decided to listen to my local WBRI
(Indianapolis) to see if it may be the one.  Their Feb. sign off time is
1815.

So at 1815, in one of their half hour Rel programs, the signal dropped.  I
said dropped, right?  Strangely the station remained on, but just at about
20% of what it had been.  WBRI is a Daytimer and I do not recall having any
kind of PSSA or EVER using one.  A few months ago, I parked on 1500 to see
if they s/off with an announcement or what and at 1730, they went
completely off, mid word (pun intended).

So: Could they be legally on at 1830?  1845?  I'll keep checking on this
radio to see if they ever go off.  Could it be, since they are not supposed
to be on after 1815, maybe the feed goes nuts and starts putting out odd
noises?  Stay tuned!

73,
Dave in Indy

Subject: [IRCA] 1500khz Mystery Station--ROAD TRIP

We have relatives in Tennessee, and get up into that area often. It’s no 
problem to take a road trip to that area and track down the station.

If someone will provide me with a list of best possible “suspects”, I’ll be 
happy to visit them.
