[IRCA] WDEV DX Test missed in Newfoundland - new catch later instead

2013-08-17 Thread Allen Willie
Hello To All,

The past five years have provided yours truly with a unique opportunity in an 
already much enjoyed hobby for the past forty five years. I speak of the first 
part of 2008, when in January of that year I had posted some medium wave 
loggings of what I had been hearing from here in Newfoundland on a newly 
aquired pocket sized Ultralight radio. 

Following that posting I was asked by John Bryant , Gary DeBock, Robert Ross 
and others if I would like to share any of my future loggings with their newly 
formed Ultralight DX group membership. 

My ocean side listening spot has allowed me to hear distant countries and 
locales that most people can only dream of hearing and to be able to do this 
using ultralight radios has only sweetened the experience and thrill of hearing 
faraway places by radio even more. 

As many of you know,  Newfoundland is a prime DX location for hearing distant 
stations from many foreign lands. For a medium wave DXer who began his hobby at 
the age of 13 on the prairies of Western Canada a move to Newfoundland in later 
years has become a dream come true. 

Because of that move and the people mentioned above from the Ultralight DX 
group who convinced me to join in the fun I would like to now present the log 
from earlier this morning of my 100 th country heard using an Ultralight radio. 

This DX catch is dedicated to our Ultralight DX comrades, the late John Bryant 
and Kirk Allen 

920 khz - PARAGUAY - Radio Nacional Del Paraguay ZP1   Asuncion   6:30 UTC

Radio Publica " , several mentions of Asuncion 
(signal came out on top for a few moments from a mix previously with CKNX 
Ontario and WHYY Rhode Island.)  // website feed online

Ultralight Station #  1106  ULR  Latin Station # 234  Ultralight 
Country # 100

Receiver: Sony SRF-M37W  barefoot 

By the way I missed /slept through the DX test from WDEV Vermont earlier this 
morning.

Good DX
