[IRCA] 1040 Van BC
CKST "Team 1040" is in with new local signal strength again here in Vic( at least as strong as 690) after some days on old signal and is giving me close to real time Canucks hockey broadcast as an alternative to C-FAX 1070's 30 second delay of the game.Are they finally on steady with their new TX operation or is this still in the testing stage?Bill in BC __ Yahoo!

Now, I compare this to CFAX, and guess what? It pegs my Perseus meter at 0 dB or S9 + 70. I've never seen that before (on the S wire with 10 dB attenuation). Wow! Wonder if it's harmful to keep it tuned to CFAX? .Walt. ___ 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

Too bad I have a local TIS and San Diego on 1040.

11-26-09 10:15 PST Victoria BC--- 1040 CKST Vancouver BC is now beaming strong again towards my co-ordinates with 80% or more strength of local 1070 so I hope they don't reverse before tonight's Canucks NHL game.Are they testing coverage area to the south again and trying to establish this as a permanent signal pattern instead of the east-west that's been the norm for the past two months? Does anyone have the heads up on these guys? I'd like the see what's running now as a fixed operation,making it a near local here in Vic.-Bill in BC __ Get the name you've always wanted @ymail.com or @rocketmail.com!

Re: [IRCA] 1040 Van BC
The FCC site shows the regular coverage map and the new ones, but the new ones look the same as the old ones, but 1040 is weaker here at night now. CFUN 1410 on the otherhand shows the same pattern day & night and in the past it was different at night, but it looks like they may be using the night one all of the time. 73, Patrick Patrick Martin KGED QSL Manager ___ 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] 1040-Van BC/1380 Everett,Wa
1040 in Vancouver is sounding like they're using old towers or have gone to tight east -west pattern today-signal is not as strong here in Vic BC.With 1380 back on 50 KW (34KW daytime?) how did they get back up if two towers are down? Someone mentioned that the two towers were not live at the time of damage so was KRKO using different towers for day and night operation?.Without the two downed towers I guess ether the day or night power is now on for 24 hours.Does anyone have an explanation for how this was handled and fixed so soon?

Re: [IRCA] 1040-Van BC/1380 Everett,Wa
Bill, Yes, KRKO does sound like they are indeed back to 50 KW and is using IBOC. They are ND days, so one stick would work. They may have some lower power STA, maybe ND until they get things back. But they are still strong here. 73, Patrick Patrick Martin KGED QSL Manager ___ 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
