[IRCA] TP 7 Dec Victoria version

[Nick Hall-Patch]

More Asians, though mostly the big guns with any strength.   Lots of 
carriers with potential, plus a few weak Aussies. The signal 
strength monitor indicated that the big guns were quite strong 
between 1100 and 1300UT, but the SDR wasn't recording at that time, 
and things mostly faded down again until around 1500UT.





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



594 JOAK woman and man in Japanese 1518UT
747 JOIB man in Japanese //774 1524UT
774 JOUB woman and man in Japanese //828 1519UT





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


828 JOBB man in Japanese 1522UT
1566 HLAZ female vocal music, woman in Chinese 1528UT



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


the above, passing throuhgh




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)


594 3WV very faint ABC fanfare under JOAK 1500UT
612 man talking to woman on phone, DU English intonation 1528UT
693 JOAB  man talking //774, struggling through CBU splash 1502UT
774 3LO faint fanfare under JOUB 1500UT
972 man talking, language unclear in the murk, 1508UT; HLCA?
1116 man mumbling in a DU English sort of way 1502UT
1422 man talking 1532UT, briefly clear enough to suspect it was Japanese.


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


567 585 603 846 864 873  891 936 945 1017  1134 1143  1242 1287  1323 
1503 1593 seemed to be Asian;

 1098  seemed to be DU

Re: [IRCA] Sony XDRS10HPiP radio

[Patrick Martin]

Thanks. I'll look into that a bit later as a Spring project. If I just run the 
jax in // with the speaker wires, there may be an impedance issue, but that way 
I would not need the switch. I would want to run the speakers at the same time 
as the audio out, as I could monitor the line out. Knowing modern electronics, 
I have no idea how well this will work. Are the speaker still running 8 ohms? 
Of course any line out would be higher impedance. A resistor inline?

Re: [IRCA] IRCA Digest, Vol 164, Issue 14

[Guy Atkins]

Hi Patrick,

Wow, you've had some great Goodwill finds lately! Now I know where all the
electronics bargains have gone-- to the smaller Goodwill stores! I used to
go to the main Seattle Goodwill (near downtown) during my lunch hour at
work, but they wised up to the most valuable electronics. These better
items are pulled aside for their online sales now.

I'll be DXing near Tillamook next month so I'll have to check out the
Goodwill store there.

My best Goodwill finds over time include a nice Zenith Trans-Oceanic Royal
1000-1 model for $6.95, but the best by far was a rare Stax brand
electrostatic headphones amplifier that is sought after in the audiophile
hobby. It was selling for $29 at the Puyallup Goodwill, but I sold it on
Ebay for over $400... and I didn't even have the proper electrostatic
headphones to test it with.

73,

Guy Atkins
Puyallup, WA
