[IRCA] 1215 909 etc.

2016-03-01 Thread Nick Hall-Patch 

1215 and 909 have been showing substantial carriers 0630UT and following.

Have also seen activity on 693 (will never get past CBU, same 
direction from here), 1053, 1089 1485.. all UK?


best wishes,

Nick

[IRCA] TP DX in Seattle on March 1

2016-03-01 Thread Bruce Portzer 
Conditions were reasonably OK today.  The upper band was favored by the 
propagation gods, but there were also signs of life at the low end of 
the dial.  A couple of stations peaked before 1400, but most of them 
peaked during the sunrise enhancement at about 1440.  The best signal of 
the day was 1503 of all things.

[IRCA] TP 1 Mar Victoria version

2016-03-01 Thread Nick Hall-Patch 
Mostly Japan, and mostly getting back to the regulars.   One thing 
unusual this morning was a reprise after 1600UT for 1287 and 1566, 
weak audio, but audio nonetheless.



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


594 JOAK two women in Japanese, often stronger than 590 stations



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


747 JOIB woman in English //774 1431UT, how to serve sashimi with 
wasabi and soy sauce.   Mmm, could a Japanese breakfast be in my future?

774 JOUB man in Japanese 1452UT
1503 JOUK two women in Japanese 1447UT,  //594




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

567 JOIK woman in Japanese //594 1435UT
612 JOLK two women in Japanese //594 1440UT, man mumbling 
accompaniment by 1446UT, 4QR?

1566 HLAZ likely man in Chinese 1440UT,  never amounted to much this morning
1575 VoA man in SE Asian language, but also lively music from someone 
else 1439UT; faint Yankee Doodle at 1500UT


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)


531 JOQG woman talking //594 slight delay 1429UT
558 HLQH laid back vocal music 1422UT, man talking 1424UT; seemed 
//603 which was very weak

828 JOBB man talking //774 1430UT
972 man talking, possibly Korean, 1443UT
1386 NHK2 woman in Japanese //747 1442UT
1422 woman talking slowly 1445-6UT
1593 NHK2 woman talking //774 1430UT


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


891 1242 1323 1539



best wishes,

Nick

Re: [IRCA] 909 1215 etc

2016-03-01 Thread Neil Kazaross 
If you want a DKAZ for LW you likely need to make it something like 30 ft x
250 ft or even bigger. Tim Tromp's DKAZ is 117 ft x 20 ft (all the room he
has) and he really likes it into shortwave. F/B does degrade some and the
beam widens somewhat and preferred arrival angle rises compared to BCB, but
I can certainly see where it could be quite useful and maybe the arrival
angle is good for SW often.

Re: [IRCA] 909 1215 etc

2016-03-01 Thread Don Moman VE6JY 
As we all know it's good to have antenna choices.  There haven't been too
many audible TA days to test it but the DKaz will sometimes produce better
results when the regular beverage antennas don't so its arrival angle must
be the one that is favoured on those days.  I don't have a good handle on
what is happening but it certainly is a useful choice to have.  It also
gets used on much higher mid HF frequencies and can sometimes produce
significantly better signals than any of my other choices for these
frequencies , mainly the Wellbrook ALA100 and some large HF log periodics.
  The pattern seems to be reversed up that high in frequency, which seems
reasonable that it would be. It is not a good performer on longwave.  Altho
I did get the posts in and the trenching etc all done last fall, I did not
complete the project which consists of 4 separate DKAZ antennas pointed
essentially NE SE SW and NW.   That should be done this summer.  This area
used to have a HiZ 8 vertical array which proved to be less useful than I
had hoped.

Re: [IRCA] 909 1215 etc

2016-03-01 Thread Walter Salmaniw 
Neil, I built a DKAZ for my DX cottage on Haida Gwaii.  I used it with
great success in October.  It's aimed for Europe, so I'm looking forward to
using it again when I'm next there later in the month.  I swing it around
for South Pacific reception.  It does well.  It's hard to do an exact A/B
comparison to the BOG which has been my stalwart DX antenna as it's aimed
more to the NW.  In any case, it's a very favourable antenna as long as
it's fed to the FLG 100.  I tried it last summer with just a matching
transformer, and results were quite disappointing.  It was quite deaf
compared to the BOG.   73,...Walt

Nice to see that you built a DKAZ. Interesting that it was doing better
than the Bevs. What is it like for TA's when they're audible?

Are you pleased in general with the DKAZ?   73 KAZ
