Re: [IRCA] 1053 Korea (all) off the air
I have been tuning the Japanese WebSDR's for weeks now -- no sign of any jamming on 1053.

Re: [IRCA] 1053 Korea (all) off the air
OK Chris.1053 was in this morning with music here, but I'll need to check the recording to see if there was any talk, and to maybe snag the offset(s) if I can. But the few times I've heard anything, it's sounded Japanese, and the rest of the band conditions at the time have been Japanese. Plus, this morning, the carrier didn't sound outrageously loud compared with the audio. best wishes, Nick At 08:04 25-03-17, Chris Kadlec wrote: It is my understand that the frequency is empty aside from Yanbian during skywave.

Re: [IRCA] 1053 Korea (all) off the air
It is my understand that the frequency is empty aside from Yanbian during skywave. My sources in Seoul tell me that Haeju is off entirely - if there were an open carrier 60 miles away at 1,500kw, it would be very much noticed. As long as Haeju is off, Seoul and Gimpo have no reason to function at all. Yanbian is pretty powerful and would usually come in strong in the absence of the other stations (when the jammers started turning off after 11:30pm instead of going 24 hours like they used to). They're probably your carrier if you see one, at least if you're talking East Asia.

Thanks Chris; I suspected that might be the case, as the beehive jammer had been so regular here before 1400UT. But...has anyone left a carrier on? I'm not hearing much audio here (and usually it sounds like Japan if I do), but unless JOAR is really undermodulated, someone still is putting out a good carrier. best wishes, Nick At 03:18 25-03-17, Chris Kadlec wrote: Just a note in relation to the lack of hearing any of the three high-powered Korean signals overseas.
