[IRCA] TA?

[Nick Hall-Patch]

An unexpected carrier on 1215 this evening...briefly fair 0525UT, but 
faded down to much more wispy remnants.   Still, any carrier under 
these geomagnetic conditions?


best wishes,

Nick

[IRCA] TP 2 Feb Victoria version

[Nick Hall-Patch]

The signal strength monitor said there was some liveliness after 
1100UT, but not much liveliness in this listener or his SDR at that time.


Things were more subdued this morning closer to sunrise, but a 
surprising number of Asians turned up just the same




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



not today, though 612 was pushing it.




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


612 4QR man in DU English, another man on phone 1336UT


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



594 JOAK woman in Japanese 1455UT



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)


567 JOIK man talking, very weak, but //594 1522UT
747 JOIB turned up a couple of times earlier, but weak music box at 
1542UT clinched it

774 JOUB music box 1541UT
828 JOBB trumpet music, man and woman talking, seemed Japanese, 
1525UT; ID'd with music box very weak 1541UT
1566 assumed HLAZ, didn't fade in until 1601UT, man talking after 
patch of instrumental music




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


972 1242 1422  seemed to be Asian;   531 576 1098 seemed DU



best wishes,

Nick

You'd never get KASA on their puny night power. If it's still there, I'll
have to try for it.

I think it was on day power after sunset today. Around the same time you
heard it there was a station underneath and sometimes almost as strong as
KMPC, which I have never heard before. I suspect it was KASA. The carriers
were on slightly different frequencies.

Two days now into February and the 2130 kHz harmonic is still cutting their
carrier 0127 UTC, just like in January.  Never quite strong enough to catch
an ID.  I really need to check against 710 during sunrise when I usually
hear WTPR, maybe this weekend...

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 

** CANADA. 800, Feb 2 at 0549 UT, on E-W antenna without even trying I can copy 
CKLW atop CCI from KQCV OKC, with Bell`s Canada ad, and something in 
Windsor/Essex (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

=
 
** OKLAHOMA. 1600, Sat Jan 28 at 1928 UT, KUSH, Cushing playing jive music, 
subformat Americana, I suppose. Weekday afternoons, it`s talk shows (after me, 
the deluge from Trans-Canada). 

{later: or used to be. Now music also heard weekday afternoon; can`t find a 
simple program schedule on their website or active FB, but seems to indicate 
local talk in the mornings ``Kush Girls``; music in afternoons} (Glenn Hauser, 
Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

==

** U S A. 660, Jan 28 at 1936 UT, my MW bandscan downward for skywave signals 
(after 1540 KXEL IA) finds something here on the E-W antenna, country music and 
talk seemingly in English at 1939 UT; ads in English at 1942 UT, and ending 
with something -online.com. The N/S antenna has KSKY The Answer talk from The 
Metroplex as usual dominant on groundwave, but E/W brings this, also making a 
1.2 Hz SAH. 

I`m thinking it`s got to be KTNN Window Rock AZ, at midday! Not listening long 
enough to hear some clinching Navajo chanting, but their website is indeed: 
http://ktnnonline.com/ The only other 660 anywhere around here is 1 kW KCRO 
Omaha, opposite direxion from Dallas, and Christian in English. 

So I`m confident it is KTNN, which is 1008 km or 627 miles from here, 50 kW ND 
but I know groundwave doesn`t even reach into the OK Panhandle. 770 KKOB ought 
to make it too, but too much QRM (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 660, Jan 28 at 2330 UT, I turn on the PL-880 still tuned to 660, and 
there`s Navajo talk from KTNN AZ, as heard four hours earlier already in 
English, but nothing unusual now, just before sunset here, and while still on 
their ND 50 kW day power (sometimes, extending past their own sunset) (Glenn 
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A [and non]. 840, Feb 1 at 0436 UT, yet another try to ID the Spanish 
religious station with WHAS nulled. Non-ID immediately upon tune-in as ``--- 
radio, la mejor alternativa`` and praise music. 0452 UT sermon, 0454 UT Mesa AZ 
phone number again, (480) 467-4626, then full source ID as ``Voz y Visión 
Radio, P O Box ---, La Quinta, California, 92248``. And phone there as (760) 
889-4791. That chex for Indio, California area, not AC (770) as first thought 
(in Spanish it`s virtually impossible to tell a setenta from a sesenta without 
extremely clear reception --- why don`t they do as the French do and make 70 = 
sesenta y diez??), and a missed call-letter ID ``--FM, Voz y Visión Radio, tu 
mejor alternativa`` and fade. Just before 0459 UT legal ID but again I can`t 
copy the call letters, just ``--- AM 840, mejor alternativa``, back to music. 
Meanwhile at 0500 UT the Cuban NA is audible mixing, from Santa Clara. 

Finally I have enough to go on, to nail down whether this is really KVJY Pharr 
TX, as seems to be the ``only alternative`` not just the best one. Searching on 
the slogan I get this webpage which is not very informative,
http://www.vozyvisionradio.com 
labeled Indio CA in one spot, Phoenix AZ in another, showing traffic from 
visitors in Hollywood FL, Bryan TX, Phoenix/Mesa AZ (So do they have stations 
in these cities too?)

Who cares about websites? All that matters is FB, and linx lead to that:
https://es-es.facebook.com/pages/Voz-y-Visi%C3%B3n/1457015621208536
https://www.facebook.com/vozvisionministries/?ref=page_internal_ref=PAGES_TIMELINE=nf

This page has the (760) phone number and a city map of presumably La Quinta CA:
https://www.facebook.com/vozvisionministries/about/?ref=page_internal

So are their flagship AM & FM stations in Mesa/Phoenix, or La Quinta/Indio CA? 
These are way out east near

** CUBA. 890, Feb 2 at 0544, romantic song in Spanish on E/W antenna without 
needing to null WLS, same // two syllables later on weaker 900. This means it 
has to be R. Progreso, 890 per WRTH being 200 kW from Chambas-Centro 6 in Ciego 
de Ávila, mid-Cuba; 900 being 50 kW at San Germán, far Holguín. 900 delay must 
be caused by a satellite hop or two to Holguín beyond Ciego de Ávila. So I also 
try to detect a // on 880 beneath KRVN/KHAC and whatever: almost positively. 
That would be 12 kW at nearest Pinar del Rio-San Juan. 

900 is one of Cuba`s most powerful single MW transmitters, the other 200 kW 
being the main Rebelde on 710 but lots of relays also there to block ``wacky`` 
WAQI, Miami. 0545 segué to a more upbeat song, and on 890 I can tell the 
modulation is distorted. Soon WLS fades back up overtaking (Glenn Hauser, OK,

Thanks Chuck (and all). Your investigation is appreciated. 

Apparently my antenna testing around 1145 UTC coincided directly with 
1610-CHHA's local sunrise in Toronto, resulting in the freakishly strong signal 
for the 6.25 kW station at 2,065 miles (3,323 km). 

Actually, Walt, your recent 1610-CHHA reports were what motivated me to 
investigate this, although the reception occurred in mid-December. Originally I 
thought that a new Spanish pest station had started broadcasting in Tacoma, WA 
(5 miles away :-)

During early morning antenna testing at 1145 on 12-17 a mystery Spanish station 
calling itself "La Voz de la Communidad" pounded in at awesome strength on 1610 
kHz-- which is normally a pretty sedate frequency here in western Washington 
state. At S9 strength for several minutes, the station featured an 
English-language public service message at the beginning of this MP3, followed 
by the Spanish "La Voz de la Communidad" ID. 
https://app.box.com/s/ln29rp40nn5ypyyp9kgoi265bgsq70lb 

Any ideas who this might be? Walt often mentions 1610-CHHA in Toronto, but 
Mexico also has a 5 kW station on the frequency. Either one would seem pretty 
unusual to manage such a potent signal on the 5 inch Mini-FSL that was being 
tested.

Subject: [IRCA] 1610-UnID Spanish Blaster

During early morning antenna testing at 1145 on 12-17 a mystery Spanish station 
calling itself "La Voz de la Communidad" pounded in at awesome strength on 1610 
kHz-- which is normally a pretty sedate frequency here in western Washington 
state. At S9 strength for several minutes, the station featured an 
English-language public service message at the beginning of this MP3, followed 
by the Spanish "La Voz de la Communidad" ID.
https://app.box.com/s/ln29rp40nn5ypyyp9kgoi265bgsq70lb

Any ideas who this might be? Walt often mentions 1610-CHHA in Toronto, but 
Mexico also has a 5 kW station on the frequency. Either one would seem pretty 
unusual to manage such a potent signal on the 5 inch Mini-FSL that was being 
tested.

Good job on 207!  I have not heard audio from them all season but there is 
always a fairly strong carrier there.  I believe they are under modulated.
