Re: [IRCA] TAs Tonight
EMWG has English listed at this time, not Russian, and only one station at Rasht with 800 kW. WRTH shows Russian at this time, from Kiahshar with 500 kW. Also listed is a 50 kw station in Bushehr. I no longer remember what cuaased me to say the WRTH conflicts with itself. The frequency listing and the national entry are in accord. Maybe I mixed up a different frequency.

Re: [IRCA] TAs Tonight
Hi Jim - I can't say I have ever heard Govorit IDs from Mayak. I'd be tempted to think this was Iran ending their broadcast in Georgian, assuming that Govorit is used in Georgian just like Russian. Ahwaz-711 carries VOIRI at times per the WRTH just like 702 so maybe the chimes are Iranian although I hear 3 note chimes rather than 2 note.

Re: [IRCA] TAs Tonight
Hi Chuck - you nailed it. Iran it is. The chimes fit the VIRI IS on Interval Signals on Line, not quite the same tone, but definitely the same notes. On 702 I only hear two tones, but it's a dead-on match with the same tones on 711 where there are three tones. The third tone seems to have dropped out on 702. I suspect that I will hear these chimes many times as I work my way up the dial on this recording. The Iranian TOH at xx:30 is one major reason why we record at the bottom of the hour. Maybe hearing what I want to hear but maybe that ID is Govorit Iran or Tehran. Thanks!

I'd be tempted to think this was Iran ending their broadcast in Georgian, assuming that Govorit is used in Georgian just like Russian.

Re: [IRCA] TAs tonight on the west coast: a few, but not like last night!
Walt and Others, Thanks for your detailed TA reports last night, keeping us fully alerted as to the European signal strengths. I was able to catch the tail end of the action, making a strong MP3 of 1134-Croatia at 0353 on the new PL-310 ultralight (assisted by a 6' PVC box loop in the back yard). This was the first west coast TA received on this new DSP pocket radio, which used its 1 kHz DSP filtering to keep the 1130-CKWX splatter in check. Congratulations also on receiving 1215-Absolute Radio on your E100 Slider, Walt. Absolute is absolutely tough to get here, due to a local 1210 Spanish pest. 73, Gary In a message dated 10/15/2009 7:59:24 P.M.

Yes indeed, nothing like last night. But, having said that, stations are popping up to audio now and again, but generally for only brief spells..The middle portion of the band seems favoured here.

Re: [IRCA] TAs Tonight
After our success in the afternoons up at Lamont thought I'd try some afternoons here, and this was the first one when I've had a chance. Started listening at 2245 UTC, by which time 1575 was already a strong carrier (actually, it faded gradually after 2300). Noted about 25 carriers between 2245 and 2345, some quite decent (1575, 585, 693, 855, 1377 at times) but most rather weak. Oddly, the only channel that made it to audio was 1044, where I've never heard a TA before. Just after 2300 heard a woman giving what sounded like news, then at 2305 it was into some hard to describe music, almost Arabic sounding but not quite.Checking again just now (0245) things aren't as good as earlier. A handful of carriers, but only the regular 1134 and 1215 are substantial. Just my luck, things are gettting interesting again, and now I have to leave town for a week! 73, Nigel Pimblett Dunmore, Alberta Bill Block wrote: I now have a weak carrier on 1215 at 0152 UT.

Re: [IRCA] TAs Tonight
Probably missed the best of it, but Virgin Radio-1215 has been about 50% audio after 0400UT, though hard to make sense of it due to the huge amount of splatter from our semi-local on (ahem) 1200. The carrier on 1215 is very loud, but there really isn't anything else very strong among the numerous other carriers heard. Best have been 837 1377 and 1494, but none lasted long. best wishes, Nick Nick Hall-Patch Victoria, B.C.

Thanks for the input Neil.What you suggest makes sense. Nearly all my TA DXing is post 2400, which is no doubt why I've never noted this before.

Mike, KFQD Achorage on 750 is booming in at 05:40. Full ID at 05:30 totally over anyone else. Makes up a bit for the lack of TAs. Nice local ID for CFTK, 550 Prince Rupert at 06:00 too...Walt. I was looking for some of this last night 0615ish UTC -- 750 was certainly taking a beating from someone... 800 was predominantly Spanish -- no idea who that would be -- Bonaire? 540 was Spanish on top of the normally dominating CBK Regina. I must say that I am using the Phaser way more now to dig through the regionals in light of the fact that there are no TA's for me to listen to and few TP's in the morn -- thanks to the Hall-Effect-Patch circling overhead.

Re: [IRCA] TAs tonight on the west coast

The ones that have produced weakish audio were 1134, 1215 (Virgin at 0310, but sounded like the Russian at 0335), and 1089 (Russian signed on at 0300, but heard traces of the UK station at 0320). For some reason the lower part of the dial was much less productive here than Walt observed.

[IRCA] TAs tonight
I had to go out for a bit, so left the SDR running in my absence. Doing a bandscan between 02:57 and 03:15 showed many carriers, especially on the upper band as well as weak audio on 1134 (Croatia), 1215 (Virgin), 1269...which has snippets of audio (?DLF) as I type this at 03:21. 1008, 1089 and 1422 are almost audios, whith another half dozen 4s. Lots of 1 to 3s as well. Might or might not develop into anything, although the Farda on 1575 with pretty decent audio earlier may be a good indicator of things to come..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

Mostly on the upper portion of the band (interestingly just the opposite of recent TP reception), with 1089, 1134, 1269 and 1215 having momentary audio every now and again. 1215 was quite listenable a couple of minutes ago (i.e. 0345), though the audio has now vanished for the moment. 73, Nigel Pimblett Dunmore, Alberta Walter Salmaniw wrote: I had to go out for a bit, so left the SDR running in my absence. Doing a bandscan between 02:57 and 03:15 showed many carriers, especially on the upper band as well as weak audio on 1134 (Croatia), 1215 (Virgin), 1269...which has snippets of audio (?DLF) as I type this at 03:21. 1008, 1089 and 1422 are almost audios, whith another half dozen 4s. Lots of 1 to 3s as well. Might or might not develop into anything, although the Farda on 1575 with pretty decent audio earlier may be a good indicator of things to come..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 ___ 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

Very interesting, I had a tentative of Kaliningrad last month, but tonight it was Virgin I was hearing. On the night I heard Kaliningrad I also heard Russia on 1089, so that might bear watching. Highlight here was a few minutes of English on 1548, but don't know what station as it vanished before any IDs. Second time this season I've heard English there just after 0400. 73, Nigel ___ 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] TAs tonight 1215 is in Russian
1215 is in Russian, Nigel at 04:00. Not Virgin, but Radio Rossii from Kalinigrad, I think. Now I'm hearing Virgin in the background as well at 04:01:30...Walt. Thanks for the tip, Walt. Fascinating, in that the rest of the band is somewhat fady carriers, and 1215 is at reasonable level with at man talking in RR at 0432, with Virgin Radio having been in earlier, and now fading up again with pop mx. Both these have been at pretty fair levels. best wishes, Nick Nick Hall-Patch Victoria, B.C.

I am in the narrow CW position on the R8 just listening to the Het while watching Iron-Chef America... Up and down... up and down.

Re: [IRCA] TAs tonight
Well, lots of carriers, some on unusual frequencies. Only reasonable audio has been 1215, seeing I missed the best of Farda-1575. Other audios have been 1134, 1269, both weak and fleeting, as well as 954 and 1017, but not strong enough to give any real clues as to language. 1494 has had a good carrier at times, but no audio. best wishes, Nick Nick Hall-Patch Victoria, B.C.

Easy to follow on the SDR. No sign of anyone else except for Kalinigrad, which is considered it's own radio country (this was Prussia before the end of WW IIa part of Germany separated by Poland from Germany proper). Strong again now at 04:47..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

Quite a few carriers and a couple weak audios on my Westerly BOGs tonite (certainly not the right antennas for TA's here) E-W cx are quite good. 73 KAZ Barrington IL - Original Message - From: Nigel Pimblett [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Mailing list for the International Radio Club of America irca@hard-core-dx.com Sent: Tuesday, November 07, 2006 9:44 PM Subject: Re: [IRCA] TAs Tonight?
