[IRCA] TP 28 Apr Victoria version

2016-04-28 Thread Nick Hall-Patch

A few of the Asian big guns poked their noses out, then went back to sleep.


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):


neither




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


747 JOIB English lessons //774 1201UT
774 JOUB English lessons //747 1201UT
1053 Korean jammer 1220UT for this maximum signal, but fairly steady 
at a weaker level.

1566 HLAZ woman in Japanese  choral  music 1235UT



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)


828 JOBB man and woman talking //747 1218UT



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


531 594 756 792  891  972 1242 1287



best wishes,

Nick

[IRCA] Domestic MWDX to Enid OK, April 22-28, 2016

2016-04-28 Thread Glenn Hauser via IRCA
--- Begin Message ---
All times and dates strictly UT [4 hours ahead of `ELT` during EDT; when 
changing times one must also change the dates for events in the 00-04 UT period 
to the previous date by ELT].

Rx: mostly DX-398 with internal antenna only or PL-880; NRD-545 with ALA-330S 
inside E-W or inside randomwire N-S; Nissan stock caradio as specified; IC-R75 
with E-W longwire; FRG-7 with NW-SE shortwire

These logs are excerpts from my daily all-band reports, mainly SWBC, also 
VHF/UHF, sometimes, utility, ham, which may be found in several archives 
without much delay, such as
http://www.hard-core-dx.com/index.php?topic=Hauser

And compiled weekly along with extensive news from many other individuals and 
publications in DX LISTENING DIGEST:
http://www.worldofradio.com/dxldmid.html

All my MW DX reports starting August 2011 are archived in this forum with open 
access: 
http://forums.wtfda.org/showthread.php?6543-MW-DX-from-Enid-OK-by-Glenn-Hauser/page47

These logs are in four sections, Canada [if any], Oklahoma [if any], rest of 
USA, unidentified [if any], separated by === Within each, they are in 
frequency order 

** U S A. 660, April 22 at 1148 UT, C music from E/W, fades 1153 UT before I 
can hear any announcement or switch to Navajo chanting, after our sunrise 1148 
UT. I don`t see how it could be anything other than KTNN Window Rock AZ, which 
would have to be on 50 kW ND day pattern. Its official sunrise in April is not 
until 1245 UT (May: 1215 UT). I bet they are (deliberately?) confused by MDT 
which is rampant on the Res and NM, but not in the rest of AZ (Glenn Hauser, 
OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 660, April 28 at 1132 UT, KTNN, Window Rock AZ with unique Navajo 
chanting and drumming, as this station is in another episode of running 50 kW 
ND day facility at night, as has been reported by numerous listeners to the 
east who normally can`t hear it. 50/50 kW U2 night pattern is supposed to be a 
circle tangent to the west, nothing eastward. It`s not merely a matter of going 
to day pattern too early, but all night per other reports (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX 
LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 920, April 22 at 1202 UT, ad for a car dealer on I-270, and another 
ad for something at 1235 N Washington Ave. The latter could apply to just about 
anytown, but I-270? 3-digit interstate hiway numbers can be duplicated anywhere 
along 2-digit routes, and in this case 270s go around Denver, St Louis, 
Columbus OH, and Washington DC. This loops NE or ENE, and there is no 920 
around Denver; Columbus despite a 920 station there and certainly Washington DC 
are too far and too far into the dayside, so that leaves: WGNU Granite City IL, 
450/500 [sic] watts U4, address in St Louis. Day and night patterns helpfully 
point toward us, and this is already 14 minutes after sunrise here. Soon 
overtaken by an hymn, no doubt KYFR Shenandoah IA (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX 
LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 1200, April 22 at 1211 UT, ad for Carnicería Jiménez, with meat 
prices weighed in libras, and website carniceriasjimenez.com which chex for 
West Chicago among other IL locations. Typically WRTO Chicago manages to 
overcome WOAI just after sunrise with its 20 kW day power into a broad pattern 
from SW, clockwise to E, nulling toward SE (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING 
DIGEST)

What happened was that I got rid of the home phone service provided by
my ISP, and replaced it with a much cheaper VOIP service.  The
changeover should have gone smoothly, but my ISP bungled at their end
and shut off my Internet service completely.  Thanks to their
bureaucracy, it took the better part of a day for them to get it going
again.
