[IRCA] Fun Night for sure!

2012-03-10 Thread George Santulli

Saturday March 10, 2012 All, What a fun night even if I did not hear KBOI and 
KOTZ, but the hunt was a lot of fun and like the good old days. I had KBOI 
years ago in NJ when they were on 950 with 5k? How in the world was that 
possible..oh yeah...it was in the 60s! Haha. Only new one caught last night was 
WKAQ 580 San Juan, PR.  The tone on 670 which I was hoping was KBOI turns out 
to be a het from Cuba...figured it was too strong to be Idaho and never did 
hear code id's etc. Great catches to those who did hear them. 

Did anyone hear KOTZ? I was listening online...what a great test! Funny sounds, 
music and tones, busy phone signals...and nice vox ID's giving directions as to 
how to apply for a QSL. Thanks to Pierre Lonewolf. Maybe we can try it again 
when the sun is not hiccuping! George in NoVa

They were having severe audio problems earlier, but now (2010 EDT) WQEW seems 
to be off the air completely.  Nothing heard here in their absence, due to 
high noise and lousy conditions, but others may have better luck.

Re: [IRCA] TT'er on 1590 - IDENTIFIED

2011-02-23 Thread GEORGE SANTULLI

Wednesday February 23, 2011
 
 
Hi folks,
 
 
I have been an NRC member for years, since around 1962. Back then I did belong 
to the IRCA, but let my membership lapse over the years, as I moved back from 
California to Virginia. The DX Monitor was great, but I felt it was a little 
"West centric". I just signed up for these lists and see that the banter is 
more collegial than I am used to. Just for the record, what are the guidelines 
for this site? It seems it is not just for "odd or unusual" DX, but to report 
what you are hearing, whether or not it is rare. Would that be about right?
 
I am George A. Santulli in Lovettsville, Virginia, about 50 air miles west of 
Washington DC.
 
Thanks!

Re: [IRCA] Sunday March 6, Tests

2011-03-04 Thread GEORGE SANTULLI

Friday March 4, 2011
 
Hi guys,
 
I see that there is a test this Sunday March 6.WFNY 1440 Gloversville, NY. The 
test is scheduled to be 0100-0200 ELT. That morning is the day we change from 
EST to EDT etc. So, my question is the time of this test, is it 100-200am EST, 
or EDT? I think the official changeover to EDT is actually at 200am EST, but it 
is confusing. Any ideas?

Re: [IRCA] OFF TOPIC: Honolulu Band Scan

2011-04-10 Thread GEORGE SANTULLI

April 9, 2011
 
Mixing business with pleasure. Playing with the Kia Sedona rental car radio, 
while waiting for someone to come and meet me resulted in "expected" stations. 
Was amazed that the only other island AMer heard was from nearby Lihue, Kaui. I 
remember one time I was in Honolulu and could hear the West Coast stations 
during Hawaii daytime. Think car radios were better in those days, at least 
they had external antennas! Could be crappy Sedona AM section of the radio.
 
Here is what I heard. Asterisk is the "assumed" station calls, since many 
didn't give them, preferring AM 650 etc. All were from Honolulu or Oahu with 
the exception of KUAI/720 from Eleele, Kauai.
Keep in mind this is not a scientific "bandscan", just what I heard sitting in 
my car at Ala Moana Park, Honolulu. No sign of KORL, wherever they are. I was 
trying to hear the calls, a nostalgic listen since it was my only Hawaiian 
station ever heard from Mainland, from New Jersey in the 60's and later from 
California in the 70's. Thought they were on some frequency, but did not hear 
them. The Star Advertiser newspaper did not list radio stations as they once 
did.

Walter,
 
by any chance was your "Waikiki balcony" hotel, the Aston Waikiki? That is 
where I usually stay since we get oceanfront rooms for me and my overseas 
guests. I am going back in May and again in November and will bring my Yacht 
Boy this timeI would like to recreate the overwater experience I had 
before. Normally, when I go to Hawaii I am there for work and don't take a 
radio, but will next time.
 
Mahalo!

Re: [IRCA] [NRC-AM] 30 years of skywave DXing

2011-04-13 Thread GEORGE SANTULLI

Okay..looks like we all stumbled into AM dxing..here is mine!
 
It is March in suburban New Jersey and this 8 year old kid is home sick with 
the flu or some such thing. Mom went out to get some meds and I am home 
alone...it was a long time ago when kids could be home for a bit...unsupervised!
 
My trusty RCA 6 transistor radio batteries are shot, so I go downstairs to 
snatch the kitchen radio, an antique Emerson, tan bakelite finish...AM only of 
course, long spindly wire hanging out of the rear.
 
On the way upstairs...I must have bumped the dial, because when I plugged it 
in, WABC 77 from New York was not there...where was it? What did I do? I had no 
idea ( I was 8!!) about channels or frequency etc. All I knew is we turned the 
big brown dial on and the radio glowed to life in a minute or so and WABC's 
Herb Oscar Anderson, the Morning Mayor came on...ah the smell of warming 
bakelite in the morning...!
 
Anyway, I twisted the dial all over the place but could not find WABC, the 
plastic face of the dial was broken, so even if I knew what 770kc was, I could 
not see it. There was a hole where about 600-1200kc was. I did not find WABC, 
but I did find a station in Philly, Boston, Hartford etc.very odd...I 
thought I broke it!
 
Dad comes home and checks on sonny boy...and I relate the story of the 
radio...and his response was something that changed my life forever...something 
like, "yes son, the radio would get other cities if their stations were strong 
enough". This "B" average student figured if you lived near NYC, that you only 
get NYC stations...wrong-a-mundo!! That was only the starting point!! The world 
was waiting!
 
Hootchie mama...if that was used in those pre-Seinfeld days is what I would 
have said!!
 
I re-batteried my RCA Transistor baby and took off searching the dials...and 
heard new strange call letters, not only did I learn NYC had other stations, 
like WCBS, WABC, WHN and WINS...but out of towners, like WBZ, WTIC, 
KYW...andand..WKBW from Buffalo, New York!!! That was it for this 8 year 
old...I had discovered something no one else knew about...my magic radio was 
now really a magic carpet that allowed me to listen to ball games from far off 
KMOX in St. Louis, WBAL in Baltimore, and when the wind was right, from 
Chicago!! I also discovered that if I held that spindly wire coming out of the 
back of the radio...the weak signal got stronger! And if I attached sister's 
Slinky to it...wow...good thing I was not electrocuted!
 
Imagine my displeasure of sorts, when I found in the Sunday Newark Star Ledger, 
a column devoted to "DXing", which I learned was what I was doing. Others were 
in on my secret, but I also learned what I was... I was a "DXer"! At 8, you 
have no titles, or caste system nicknames...so DXer was special... The Newark 
News article spoke of the NNRC, the Newark News Radio Club...I write to them 
and in a matter of days...comes my sample copy of one of the recent 
publications...OMG...there are others like me out there...and these guys really 
pull in stations!
 
Talking about this to my friends went nowhere...they did not understand what I 
was telling them..."hey guys...we can hear Harrisburg, PA on our transistor 
radios"!!  was probably the retort, or why would we want to??...only my 
cousin who lived nearby found it interesting too!
 
Needlesss to say, that cold, windy March day in the NJ suburbs changed my life! 
All future vacations, no matter where the family went, I was dropped off at 
WXXX in some far away place...in those golden days, CE's at the stations loved 
the inane questions an 8, 9, 10 year old could fashion...and they let me read 
weather reports, commercials and even introduce songs!!!
 
It crafted my future career in broadcasting, and later TV, which is where I am 
today. And it all started from that 20 foot climb up those steps in my house 
dragging the aged Emerson radio with me!

I found Gary S. Collins in Pullman, WA! He is a physics prof at Washington 
State University.
 
He remembered his 4' loop and the fact that he heard Tonga-1020am in Cranford! 
 
I think I went to only one or two Ernie getogethers in Brooklyn, but a number 
of the NNRC picnics down the Jersey Shore. I can picture it, but cannot 
remember where...Lincroft? Keansburg? Cheesequake Park? I remember Bernie Duffy 
from Staten Island...I wonder if pics exist of those times...
 
I went to some sort of NRC meeting or annual convention outside Cincinnati Ohio 
in 1967. 
 
Best...

Any VT stations on the air for the flooding? That is a tough state to hear even

Re: [IRCA] Off Topic?

2011-09-12 Thread GEORGE SANTULLI

September 12, 2011  Not sure this is the right forum for an antenna question. 
If not, please direct me to the right one. I am thinking of re-doing my lead in 
coax for my 400 foot longwire. Instead of taking it right into the radio as I 
have done in the last few years,  I am thinking of putting in a two way SO-239 
female connector in the bottom of the window frame so I can run a coax from the 
wire the "outside" of the SO-239, then a coax from the "inside" part of the 
SO-239 to the radio. Last year, the "hole" I ran the coax through the window 
got leaky on cold winter nights and this two way SO-239 solves that. Question: 
What is the best coax to run about 100 feet from my longwire to the outside 
SO-239 and does the inside coax from the interior SO-239 need to be the same 
type of wire or is there an impedance mismatch if I used a different coax wire? 
I think I used RG-58/U, because I had it laying around. Or does it not matter? 
Thanks. George A. SantulliLovettsville, VA

Thanks Nick

Only once when my first line was too short and I had to connect two coax cables 
with an SO 239 fem-fem barrel connector. One thing I want to do is run one line

Have you experience with using the  PL-259 (mating to the SO-239) 
connectors outdoors George?   The feedthrough idea is a good one, but 
I believe some connectors are better than others for 
resisting  intrusion by rain and other nasty weather.  Some people 
coat them with rubber tape (Bishop's tape etc.).  I'm not an expert 
on the subject; my BNC's outdoors are either coated or under an 
overhang to keep most of the rain off, and they seem to be doing OK.

best wishes,

Nick

OMG! I checked out some of  your "ultralights" and was shocked...they are like 
the old Walkman radio's! I had no ideaI was expecting it to look like my 
Sony 2010 or one of the Grundigs! Why are these so good? How do you get split 
freqs on them? Can they change from 10khz to 9khz or is it continous tuning? I 
am very intrigued nowI can see how you can have a number of them! Thanks!

Rick, I had my 2010 fixed by  guy in Henderson, Nevada. I had multiple issues 
and he fixed it. I will try and find out the name of the outfit.  My keyboard 
was not working, nor did the Air Band. It now has a new issue, no more direct

Bill, I think there has been a city of license change. Here in Virginia I did 
hear an ID of WGBW Denmark-Greenleaf. I checked my Rand McNally because in 
listening to the audio recording it was clear it was WGBW, but was not so sure 
of Denmark-Greenleaf until I checked to see that these two towns, not 
contiguous, were northwest of Two Rivers George in Northern VA

So this might still be good info. He may also have a line on repairing the

Thanks Todd...I have some engineer friends here at State Department who are 
also hams...I will see if they know of any places for filters like the one you 
mentioned.
 
That is too bad about the Kiwa Loop. I think even with increased prices, people 
would line up for it. I have had one for about 10-12 years I guess...and 
performs beautifully to this day...it looks great too...he did a real 
professional job on it. People remark on it all the time wondering what it is?? 
But it looks greatI would be up a creek if it broke!!

store when the new Radio/TV Experimenter came inand salivating over the new 
White's Radio Log. I wish I still had my copies, but this sure fills the bill. 
Thanks!

The 940 station is WNRG in Grundy, Virginia.  They run high power all night 
with only dead air at ToH.  They and WMAZ Macon, who also does not reduce power 
at sunset, have rendered 940 useless here.

Re: [IRCA] Local Radio Is Getting Tuned Out.

2011-11-03 Thread GEORGE SANTULLI

Every June, I take a car from Virginia and drive it across the country...for 
fun...I drive it for a company that hires drivers to "move" cars. Besides 
seeing the country from the seat of someone else's car...I get to listen to 
local radio and I move from east to west, north to south.
 
This past June, I took a car from Orlando to Seattle and not one CD was 
used...it was AM local radio all the way...and what a great way to learn about 
the country! It would be a shame if I was in Iowa and could not listen to 
"Trade-io" or in Sedalia, MO and not listen to the funeral viewings for that 
night...or McCook Nebraska with the elementary school lunch menu, or the ads 
for local mom and pop restaurants...this is America...and to lose local radio 
is like losing a part of our culture. I sent an EM to Clear Channel and told 
them I was taking all of their DC/Northern Va stations off my car radio! Fat 
chance they will respond, but I sent them my two transistors worth!!

I was amazed at the ground conductivity in the midwestlast year as I was 
driving in Iowa and SoDak, I was hearing 5kw stations hundreds of miles away, 
with clarity and strength not seen in the east. As I drove from southern 
Georgia towards Nashville, I thought WSM would boom in, but did not really 
until the south Atlanta suburbs. But in the midwest, yowza, WNAX-570 SoDak I 
listened to from Missouri almost to the Montana border. KFYR and some 
Manitobans too...it was unreal. I know the freqs are less crowded too, but it

Re: [IRCA] New MW QSL (WGBW)

2011-11-07 Thread GEORGE SANTULLI

Hi Patrick, I see that you have a long beverage. I have a shorty, about 500 
feet. I set it up yesterday as I do each year, but for some reason this time I 
am picking up some locals about 20 miles away on some LW frequencies that I 
don't remember in past years. Nothing is different in my setup except the lead 
in coax is 75ohms and not 50. That would not make that much of difference would 
it? Do you get some locals on your wire? It seems worse during the day, when 
stations are ND and full power, but it is distressing. Thanks.

I tried for it, but "all I got" was WWDX, Huntingdon Tennessee, another

What about CJMR - 1320?  They're licensed to Mississauga and though they're now 
100% ethnic, I used to hear them here in English in the AM doing local nx.  
Apparently there wasn't enough local interest to keep up that part of their

the two old 960s in Ontario (Kingston and Cambridge) are long gone to FM.  But

Re: [IRCA] Re KHMO and DX alerts

2012-02-11 Thread George Santulli

Saul, I will put in my two cents worth at the risk of being hung out to dry... 
I started my current TV career in radio...at age 15...got the requisite 
Third..Second and eventually First Class FCC license, all now deceased. I 
understand the sensitivities of day pattern vs night pattern etc. But for 
goodness sake...it was not like KHMO was leaking Plutonium...it was an error 
and my view...is ...no big deal. It did not kill off goldfish or wombats in 
nearby Quincy...it was just a radio station left inadvertanly on day power or 
pattern. I once had a job at now long gone KKIO in Santa Barbara, CA. We were a 
daytimer on 1290 khz, maybe 5kw day, can't remember. But it was a daytimer for 
sure. I had the "signoff" shift and a few times, even after I went through the 
arduous task of shutting the XMTR link off, there were times that the carrier 
was left on. I lived 40 miles from the station and did have to go back a few 
times to re-cycle the shutdown procedure. It was a rather complica!
 ted process and don't remember the details, only that a few times, the carrier 
was left on. I would get home and the CE of KCUB in Tucson would call to remind 
me that "we were still on the air", technically, because the carrier was on and 
people on the westside of Tucson, were complaining of a loss of fidelity etc. 
As far as I remember, no one was fried by my little carrier left on, no cats 
jumping off rooftops. Sure it was not right according to the rules...but.. So 
while I understand that by FCC regs a station with a specific night pattern 
must adhere to the "rules", but in the big picture we get so few breaks these 
days, wouldn't it have been nice to give some folks a shot at a normally hard 
to get station?  No one wants the CE to get into trouble, but it was not

Subject: Fw: Re: [IRCA] Re KHMO and DX alerts

George; 
  
Feel free to pass this on to the group 
  
Paul called me last evening to alert me that KHMO was still apparently on day 
power-pattern. 
  
This happens occasionally when the power-change computer at the site gets a bug 
up is hard drive and freezes up (actually, whenever Ralls County REA puts a 
glitch on the incoming AC and the back-up supply doesn't see it and switch 
immediately) 
  
I called the r/c and immediately went to 1000 W / nights 
  
To do otherwise, once I had been alerted of the malfunction, would be to have 
'willfully' violated terms of the license 
  
I quote: 
  
In the event that an AM broadcast station is operating with a mode of operation 
not specified by the station license, then the station operation must be 
terminated within 3 minutes or the station output power must be reduced 
sufficiently to eliminate any excess radiation. This includes AM Directional 
stations with parameters or monitoring points out of tolerance with the station 
authorization. [See 73.1350(d)] 
  
Right now, I'm waiting for 1745 CST to roll around, so I can do it again this 
evening. 
  
I would be more than willing to do a full-power (5000 watts) (Gates 'FIVE') , 
day pattern 'test' some night after  local time, followed by days @ 1000, 
nights @ 1000 and nights at 500 on the auxiliary (MW-1)...management 
agreeing, of course. 
  
Paul has offered to make me an audio file to run so your group could better ID 
the station. 
  
Thank you.

2010-01-15 Thread GEORGE SANTULLI

Tom,

I was listening here in NoVa at about 1-2am MST/ 3-4am EST and I heard WPHT 
Philly for sure, then some Mexican music broken by a man talking but could not 
get anything out of him. I also heard a "religious station" under all of it 
with some guy talking about bibles...was that KGYN? Who would the Mexican music 
be?

I did not hear code IDs', but did think I heard some "sweep tones" 
periodically, similar to what we used to hear years ago when a Michigan station 
would do their monthly frequency tests, with a what I would call a "warbling 
tone" up and down. Did anyone hear them for sure.

There was no hint of any sweeps, staircase

Do you know what KGYN was running at the time of the test? I heard someone

Sorry, it was WHA on 970 that I heard with clear ID at about 535est. I was 
listening to the end of their state news...what caught my ear was mention of 
"Superior" and listening in what they were talking about was something to do 
with "UW-Superior", the University of Wisconsin-Superior. Then they went into 
statewide weather and then the clear WHA ID...thrilling...I had been there some 
years ago as part of my job and know right where their studios are. Not sure 
why I said 1310...should have tried for WIBA right?

Currently (1945 Central) I am hearing WLRB 1510 Macomb IL, a 1 kw (250w CH) 
daytimer, on well after sunset. It is coming in fair in the WLAC null. The 
format is NOS and I am hearing frequent ID's between songs.
