[IRCA] Farda-1575 on the west coast?
Further to Nigel's recent description of conditionsdid anyone on the west coast hear R. Farda last night? I'm on Gabriola Island for the weekend, and an ALA100 pointing pretty much due north has appeared of course, not far from an open stretch of Georgia Strait. Farda was heard for awhile last evening with weak audio here...but I didn't see any other reportsmaybe just because it wasn't that good, or maybe the audio didn't make it anywhere else... Heard CJWW-600 at local noon, also, so it might be a good place to return to. best wishes, Nick -- Nick Hall-Patch 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

Only a very weak carrier from Farda-1575 here in Arizona at 0049 UT. I also have carriers on 1206 and 1215.

Walt, In checking further, I see listed a powerful German on 1575 running VoR also. I will try again Friday and see if I can pull more audio out of it. the music seemed "Dance techno" stuff with a male ancr, but I really could not tell much more. But the carrier came up quite nicely. I lost it around 0800 UTC, which seemed late for any TA. Norway 1314 used to be in that late, but a lot farther North. 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

Walt, Opps, I did not catch that the time difference. I was thinking Europe, not realizing UAE, a lot farther to the East. You are right! Infact I heard this until about 0800 UTC. I'll take Spain, if that. Never heard it here. Portugal, but never Spain. But it never got beyond threshold. I'll keep trying. I even tried the SPR4 and it was about the same on that. Thanks. 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

At 05:15, the UAE has been in daylight for many hours. Have a look at GeoClock, or even something like the DX Edge. Simply should not be propagating through so much daylight. When I hear them, it's always late during our afternoons, or early evening at the latest. It's easy to follow Farda via the internet stream, and characteristic modern music. At this time of the night, it's more likely to be Spain...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
