[IRCA] TP 28 Feb Victoria version.
An odd morning today, totally Asian despite the geomagnetic rumblings, and completely dead on the upper band. Best signals were from 1435 to about 1500UT, with a complete collapse around local sunrise. pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly): 747 JOIB 1446UT 774 JOUB 1448UT 972 HLCA 1455UT Reasonable audio at times during the period (much of it understandable by a native speaker, though often battling with splash or noise): 594 JOAK 1436UT not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could be understood by a native speaker: 702 NHK2 man and woman //774 1451UT 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 //594 1442UT 585 JOPG woman talking, then choral music 1453UT //594 603 HLSA ballad 1457UT //558 on Korean SDR 612 JOLK complete shock (expecting 4QR with today's geomagnetism) with man talking //594 1436UT 828 JOBB never amounting to much 1459UT, but pips gave it away 873 JOGB man //747 1456UT 945 NHK1 woman talking //594 1453UT; pretty weak, but definitely parallel; likely JOIQ Muroran? judging by northerly locations of most other Japanese heard, so pretty fair DX... Strongish het, no or "near imaginary" audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter) 711 1188 seemed to be Asian; nothing seemed to be DU best wishes, Nick Nick Hall-Patch Victoria, BC Canada ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com
[IRCA] Alberta TPs for 28 February 2019
I inadvertently left some attenuation in for much of the morning session, but I don't think it made much difference as nature's attenuation had already wiped out any trace of Asian signals here in Alberta. One lonely DU, 1548 4QD with ABC news fanfare at 1400 made up all the action this morning. 73, Nigel Pimblett Dunmore, AB Perseus SDR with Wellbrook Phased Array ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com
[IRCA] 1430 dx test screenshots and audio
From Ken in Scotland I have uploaded 2 screenshots, 1khz tone starting up again, 400hz tone in progress. Also an audio clip of 1430 lsb mode, and the tone can be just heard starting up, same time as the screen capture, 0553. Then a clip on cw from 1429 where you hear a bit of tone, and then at 0557 lsb audio of the 400hz tone, just audable. Remember the 1khz tone, the usb element is lost under the euro These files are only copied temp to the server. I haven't linked them yet in any pages Web update long overdue. Had some good logs this season, but all on scraps of paper around the shack so far. http://www.dxarchive.com/mw/1430_a.jpg http://www.dxarchive.com/mw/1430_b.jpg http://www.dxarchive.com/mw/2019_02_24_0553_1430_lsb_cw_lsb.mp3 ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com
