[IRCA] TP 3 Aug Victoria version

Still fairly normal...i.e., not too much, mostly carriers and weak 
audio from time to time.




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):


no



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


no





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 man talking //774 1235UT
774 3LO man talking //612 1235UT
891 man talking, DU English inflection; 1233UT
1297 man talking, Japanese inflection 1208UT



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


774 828 1242 1566 seemed to be Asian;
756 855 909 1017 1098 1503 seemed to be DU

A few weeks ago I received an e-mail notice that I was
dropped from the NRC list.  Have been working with Wayne
Heinen and my ISP Tech Support but nothing positive so
far.

Yes, I realize this is the IRCA list, but just checking
with others who are  NRC members if they have similar
problems.

Or am I the only one.

[IRCA] 531-More FM On the Warpath

2017-08-03 Thread d1028gary
As it turns out the earlier 531-More FM (2 kW in Alexandra, NZ) ad string clip 
featuring Theo's "Sheila" wasn't its strongest appearance from yesterday 
morning. 
Around 1240 it kicked PI and 4KZ off of the cliff, and went on this potent 3 
minute run at the "Kiwi cliff" (apparently the only place in North America 
where it's ever been heard)
