KRDU was also my first thought, and I can't think of any other possibilities. I've never verified them here in Seattle, but like you, I've gotten the signal and format and suspected it was KRDU.

[IRCA] 1130 Mount Angel OR
Listening at the moment (23:45 UTC) but battling with far stronger CKWX. I'm having to use my Misek Phaser to good effect, mostly nulling CKWX. At times KTRP is well heard. It is Russian, and seems to be of religious nature at the moment (Protestant rather than Orthodox). I'll keep an ear open for an ID. Way down compared to when I often heard the SS station over CKWX weeks and months ago, especially in the late afternoon. Rapid fading noted. The phaser sure does it's thing, though! On all my other antennae (I have 3 to choose from), I'm unable to hear anything under CKWX. 73, Walt in Victoria, BC ___ 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] 1130 continues to impress!
OK, playing with the phaser, KPWX was strongly audible until 00:35 UTC (4:35 pm local). CKWX was nulled out completely. I then heard dead air, followed by a KRDU ID at fair/good level...this is a religious station in Dinuba, CA which is located in north-east CA near Fresno. http://www.krdu1130.com/main.html. Nothing more was heard from KPWX. I can only conclude that at that moment, KPWX switched over their night time pattern and power. Anyone else hearing them now? 73, Walt Salmaniw, Victoria, BC ___ 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] 1130 CKWX
After KWPX 1130 Mt Angel OR came on the air, CKWX Vancouver BC was clubbered during the day. Even though CKWX is 50 KW at a little over 200 air miles and has a good amount of signal in the US, KWPX is stronger with their 25 KW, 100 miles away. Of course CKWX takes over by LSS, when KWPX drops power and goes directional, but I have been trying to get CKWX in the clear during the day. I adjusted the phase on the NE EWE, knocking down signals to the SW, but of course KWPX is SE of me, so that did not work too well. Both stations were neck neck with Mt Angel having a slight edge. I could no longer get CKWX on any other antenna duting the day other at all than the NE EWE. Today I hooked up the phaser and ran the NE EWE to one inpout and the Eastern beverage to the other and I have CKWX back during the day at about 90%. KWPX can still be heard way in the background, but it is not an issue. Playing around with the phaser, I found KRCO 690 Prineville OR quite listenable after phasing out CBU and even I could get Coos Bay OR on 1420 while phasing down KITI Chehalis WA (5 KW directional to the SW, at me at 65 miles) 73, Patrick Patrick Martin Seaside OR 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] 1130 with SS music
01--02- 11 ---00:00 PST ---Victoria BC : Turning radio on and landing on 1130 I found what used to be only a reception problem for Vancouver listeners at sunset--loud SS music cutting up semi-local CKWX Van BC so I figured that KPWX Mt.Angel OR was on day power as normally on night power they aren't audible here.DXed for about an hour and checked back and I still heard them at 01:00 PST and decided it was crash time. When I woke up at 06:00 they were still there so it wasn't just for a short run and they were on full power all night long.If anybody in that neck of the woods(Oregon) can verify this I'll be happy.Bill in BC ___ 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

Re: [IRCA] 1130 interference
A move to 1570 would be feaseable since that was allocated to Nanaimo BC but was abandoned in favour of FM some years ago but I believe 1580 is currently occupied by an Oregonian so that's not an option.I don't know if News 1570 would sound so catchy as does News 1130.I don't understand why A guy would want to set up a high power AM on 1130 anyway only to have to either shut down at night or run only enough trickle to cover the local town and maybe a 5 mile radius even if there was nobody else cutting in like i.e.Vancouver. Any new AMs , especially with foreign language formats, should be relagated to the X band and run with 10 KW which is enough power for a small or medium population. ___ 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
Re: [IRCA] 1130 interference
Bill, My thought was not for CKWX to move to 1570, but Mt. Angel. That way they could probably have more power at night. 1570 used to be a fantastic DX channel after CHUB and CKTA moved to FM. However, since XERF boosted to 100 KW, the flea power DX on the channel at night is pretty much history. 73, Patrick Patrick Martin Seaside OR 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
Re: [IRCA] 1130 interference
I thought that this topic might have been put to bed but I'm glad that it's still on. I'm still on this one and doing as many scans as possible and the same thing is happening here in Nanaimo BC which is directly west of Vancouver by close to 40 miles. A Sunday scan starting at 17:45 PDT revealed a weak KPWX signal under a nulled CKWX signal and by 18:00 was audible under a direct CK pickup and caused a bit of fluctuation of the two. At 18:15 KP was almost even with CK and continued to compete with CK until power down at exactly 18:30 or so it seemed to disappear at that time.From the Mt.Angel perspective,what are the Spanish listeners in areas outside of that town hearing when their radios suddenly loose a fair to good signal to nothing or almost nothing and their Mex music is gone.Are they suddenly hearing English news from a Canadian city and having to tune their radios to 1520 to keep on hearing their favourate songs?A Northwest Broadcasters Recent News entry reported that the Mt.Angel,Oregon station was (testing) with a power output of 6.5 KW,which is quite a bit less than the 50,000 KW that CKWX quoted. Imagine a station with 50 million watts.I don't know if that report is accurate but it might be more realistic. Since KP was granted a license,they could solve the pre sunset skip be powering down an hour before critical time and later in the morning.Bill in BC ___ 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] 1130 BC ON
At Burnt River ON this morning, at 7 am EDT, a bit after sunrise, had a very strong 1130 CKWX. This on the sangean portable and radio Shack loop. Only previous logging was a year or two ago, and only heard the familiar jingle leading to sports.

Re: [IRCA] 1130 interference
CKWX puts a very good signal into OR/WA at night. It used to be quite good days before Mt. Angel came on with 25 KW. Ah ha they were testing with just 6.5 KW. No wonder the difference. With the 6.5 KW, CKWX can easily be heard off the NE EWE, and Mt. Angel off the SW EWE (Don't have a SE EWE, just a Eastern beverage), but with 25 KW or 50 KW, goodbye to CKWX days as Mt. Angel covers it.

Re: [IRCA] 1130 problem: it`s the weather!
The below is total BS. The ``meteorologist`` doesn`t know the difference between MF and VHF, or groundwave, the ionosphere and troposphere, and how weather affects propagation. The real cause has already been discussed extensively by DXers who know a lot more than he does. Are these people just stupid, or is this story some kind of face-saving attempt by the stations? 73, Glenn Hauser from CKWX site http://www.news1130.com/news/local/article/111376--say-goodbye-to-noticias1130 Say goodbye to Noticias1130. Spanish radio should stop bleeding through airwaves soon Mike Lloyd Oct 06, 2010 07:36:25 AM VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) - Many of our listeners from the Fraser Valley to the Tri-Cities have been hearing a Spanish language station broadcasting on News1130. The signal that has been bleeding through our airwaves is coming from Mt Angel, Oregon. After a meeting between our engineers and those from the American station, here's the real deal: It's not just simple signal skipping or a strong signal drowning out News1130. We're told it's a rare atmospheric anomaly, stronger than it's been in years. A few things have converged to create conditions not seen in decades, some of which are weather-related. News1130 Meteorologist Russ Lacate has been talking about an enormous high-pressure ridge for some time now. It's been influencing the coastal weather from Prince Rupert to L.A. and what's really happening is the uppermost layer of the atmosphere is becoming very stable, very stratified. [That's] creating a channel between the layers of the atmosphere through which radio waves can travel unobstructed. Lacate says in rare conditions like these, radio waves can travel across abnormally long distances. It is called a skywave and it seems to peak between 7am-9am and 6pm-8pm. The good news is it's expected to return to normal soon. So, adios la Mexicana, hola News1130! And muchas gracias to all our listeners for being patient. ___ 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] 1130 Mount Angel update
I talked to the GM at Bustos Media at the Portland office yesterday about Mount Angel. My report I sent was never directed to the GM, so someone else got it. What happened to it, maybe the Business Manager got it. But the GM told me that 1130 Mount Angel, they know nothing much about it except it is in the testing mode. They don't know when it will come on the air, as the control of that is coming directly out of their home office in Sacramento. It is possible, the offices in Portland will control the programming, in time, but that is unknown. A local engineering firm are involved with the ETs. I am sending my report to the Sacramento office, as the Portland office doesn't want to QSL it, at least at this time. I guess I could wait, as I am pretty sure Portland will be in control of it, as who else will? But maybe I can get a QSL out of Sacramento directly. But now we know. I also asked him if Bustos Media was interested in the old Churchill stations that recently went off (660-Junction City, 1040-Tigard, and 1450-Eugene); he quickly said no, as there are too many Spanish speaking stations in Oregon now, he commented. 73, Patrick ___ 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] 1130 Mount Angel update
Pat, Thanks for the information on KTRP 1130 Mount Angel. Hope you get a QSL from Bustos in Sacramento. You'll probably be the first to receive a QSL. Good Luck. When I first heard the testing on 1130, I send a e-mail to Bustos Portland and never got a reply. I did get a reply when I inquired about KOOR 1010 when they did their format change. KTRP 1130 is testing now at 1:50 PM PST. S-9+40 db. A little splatter from local Bustos station on 1150.

[IRCA] 1130 Mt. Angel
Is anyone in the Puget Sound area getting the tone Mt. Angel is running, during the day? I am wondering how good their null is to the NW. Here on the Oregon coast, the NE EWE gets rid of 95% of it. If the signal is on nights, there is no sgn of it here, but the 490w direction to the SW has a pretty tight null to the NW. 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

Pat, The Palstar R30cc connected to the Ratzlaff active whip (18 whip) has KTRP with a S-9+20db. No sign of KPNW 1120 on this combination. I have noticed what I believe might be CKWX underneath KTRP this afternoon at 12:33 PM PST on the JRC 545 and u shaped fence antenna. TOH hour IDs KTRP equipment check.

[IRCA] 1130 on the truck rx in Madison WI last eve
Was fun in the truck when driving from Grafton to Madison WI last night to listen to KWKH clobbering WISN with Bird High vs Ruston HSFB. At times there was some serious Hetting from Croatia going on as well. A load 4000 hz tone. At other times IBOC, likely KMOX's was a big nuisance. Re: KWKH..I have been noting them lots this late summer at night and suspect their DA is outta whack and not just for HSFB. Re: Croatia 1134..this tends to be the easiest TA to get far inland and the het was strong enough that if the truck rx had a good selective filter like 2.3 Khz, I'd have had some audio. Anyhow..the season is here when I am getting TA's hetting domestics in central WI just driving around with a normal Dodge Dakota pickup rx and its omni whip. 73 KAZ in Madison for a few days. ___ 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
