[IRCA] WGBW?

[Jim Renfrew]

Jim Renfrew, Holley NY

A real mess on 1590, with WASB causing havoc at 1589.9, and WAKR the other 
station.  At 0111 EDT I heard polka accordion music, which doesn't fit WASB 
or WAKR.  Anyone else hear the accordion?

Lots of interference.  Not sure what WGBW is doing now.  Thanks for the

"Mexican Polka" here, same general bearing as WGBW from here. WNTS maybe?

Logged some classic rock and a "jingle ID" but couldn't make it out in 
the noise.

[IRCA] WGBW Test

[Patrick Martin]

In listening back to the complete hour of the test, I found there was
really only 1 time I caught Morse code at 0005. The other times I
thought there was some was either flute music or just tones of different
types. Maybe that flute music was the test too. 
  I am really pleased with this as the last WGBW test that was run, I
only had  slight tentative, but cx were not as good as tonight either.
The beverage does well when cx are good. Thank you Saul for setting up
the test, and Mark for running it. Fantastic!   

73,

Patrick

[IRCA] WGBW Test

[Barry McLarnon]

Just getting to my overnight recordings now...

WGBW was heard well with a voice announcement at 0100 EDT, followed by bugle 
call, calliope music, and various other strange music (including the Mickey 
Mouse theme).  A very slow Morse ID that sounded sent by hand started at 
0105:30.  The test seemed to continue beyond 0200, with the same sequence 
repeating then.  A relog, but it's always fun to hear a DX test.

The surprising thing was that I also heard WGBW at 0805 EDT, well past 
sunrise here, with a formal sign-on announcement.

[IRCA] WGBW DX test

[Mike Stonebridge]

Hi Everyone:

Listening last night while the test was on, 1590 was, as usual, one big jumble 
of noise. Only IDs I heard at the time were for KBND and KFLE. So I quit 
listening live as I knew, sooner or later, people would report hearing IDs and 
TTs at certain times. And they did.

Armed with a list of what was heard at what time I went back over the recording 
this morning and sure enough all the morse IDs and TTs were there, along with 
flute music. Only thing missing were the voice IDs. Surprisingly, all this was 
heard on my EWE as somehow I had forgotten to switch over to my E/W beverage.

Many thanks to all those responsible for making this happen.

Mike in St Isidore, AB with Perseus and 120' EWE

[IRCA] WGBW-1590 Test

[Stephen Ponder]

No luck with hearing the WGBW test this morning (Sun 11/23 @  CDT). Local 
station KMIC (Radio Disney) is on that frequency with IBOC.

>From my QTH here in far SE Houston (Clear Lake City), it's very hard to get a

>ultralight that tunes in 1 kHz steps (like my Eton E100 or my Tecsun PL310).

Anyway, thanks to everybody that was involved in setting up and executing the 
test!!

[Rick Dau]

I sat on 1590 from 0005 to 0150 CLT and didn't hear a trace.  WGBW's day 
pattern, as has been alluded to already here, has a deep null almost straight 
at me (to protect WPVL and/or KWBG, I would assume).  The only thing I can 
surmise as to why they came in with a decent signal during the test on 
10/16/2010 is that conditions to the northeast must have been favorable that 
night.

On last year's test, everybody had a kilowatt aimed at them.  WGBW has a new 
(directional) pattern that favors Ontario and other NE environs.  That little 
SE lobe is the only reason I was able to get them.  There are  thousands and 
thousands of nice patterns at the fccinfo.com site.

hear an ID of WGBW Denmark-Greenleaf. I checked my Rand McNally because in 
listening to the audio recording it was clear it was WGBW, but was not so sure 
of Denmark-Greenleaf until I checked to see that these two towns, not 
contiguous, were northwest of Two Rivers George in Northern VA

I'm pretty sure what they're saying is actually "Denmark-Green Bay." The 
relocation from Two Rivers up to Denmark was designed to give WGBW a 
city-grade daytime signal over Green Bay, which is by far the largest 
community in that corner of northeast Wisconsin.

Just a mile or two from WASB's transmitter means no love from WGBW tonight.

Freedom 1590? Is that Seattle? Not hearing Seattle at all off the
beverage, as far as I can tell. KVGB IA is dominant. Glad they are talk,
or if music, I probably would not have logged the test.

[IRCA] WGBW-1590 DX test

[Steve Francis]

At 2:06 EDT, after more than an hour of tantalizing sporadic and super-weak 
clarinet music, Pied Piper music and brief test tones, a tone ended, followed 
by a voice ID.  Weak but readable.  Heard only once before, on 8-8-75, signing 
off at sunset.

Calliope music and another brief tone at 2:17.

I didn't see any other entry showing //time of reception of test tone at :34 or 
35 past the hour last night to verify that I actually heard it but if I did 
then I could say that I was the farthest away from the station to hear it with 
a portable receiver unassisted by any form of external antenna. Unfortunately I 
only had a few minutes to listen in as I was busy  with a more important matter 
during the hour the test was done. If there's anyone out there who tuned in for 
the whole hour and can verify that I heard a 20 second tone at that time please 
let me know so I can put a definite yes in my log. Thanks Bill in BC.

[IRCA] WGBW 1590 DX TEST

[amdxer]

WGBW 1590 DX test heard with bugle calls noted several times, at
00:10, 00:33 and 00:50 and brief 10 second or so steady tone
repeated several times.  Will have to dig through recording to
identify music and possible ID's.

Using R8A and Quantum
loop.

[IRCA] WGBW DX Test - QSL

[amdxer]

Received Verification Letter in mail today for WGBW 1590 DX test
last Satudray.  This is a short turn around time, mailed
my report with CD on Tuesday, reply back on Saturday!

In
my reception report I mentioned hearing a "dog barking "
type sound, perhaps a Disney song or some type of sound effect at
00:04CDT.  Mark Heller said this was not part of his test and
that someone else also reported hearing similar "dog
barking" sounds at the same time.  All my other details
for ID, bugle songs and the test tones matched.

Thanks to
all who helped with this DX Test.

Their day pattern is directional with a deep southwesterly null.  They send 49 
watts to me near San Diego, and with KMIK's IBOC only 300 miles away on the 
same heading and their analog blasting 100+kw toward me, I'm getting nada.

Without the beverage, I am sure I would not be hearing them. Even their
peaks are far from strong. The only things that is coming in is Morse
code and tones. I have not heard anything else I can ID. But there was
some loud music around 12:15-12:20 CDT, or thereabouts. I am recording
the whole hour, so I can check it out before sending a CD.

[IRCA] WGBW test + WWKB 1520 NBuffalo NY off

[Chernos Saul]

WGBW 1590 huge with all sorts of weird music including accordion. No tones 
noted in the few minutes I made my recording. Solid IDs. WWKB 1520 NY Buffalo 
seems entirely off, huge K-Love Rossford OH plus sprts station - and "country 
107" ID - the same unID I see George Santulli in VA reporting. Quick web check 
and look at NRC log yields no info on this. Saul @ Burnt River ON

Saul,

I heard quite a bit of Morse code during the hour. The tones, I am not
sure of what those were. There are a lot of Network cue tones, so it is
hard to tell who that was.

[Tim Hills]

I was getting accordion/polka music fading in and out throughout the 
hour, no tones heard. I was dismissing the accordion music as Spanish...
Did get the WTVB ID/jingle at 5:40, probably the oldies I was logging 
was from them..


Oh well, WTVB is a new logging for me anyway :D

[IRCA] WGBW Test (10-11p PDT): Should I try? Which radio 2 use?

[Stephen Airy]

Hi all, regarding the WGBW test...
 
I'm about 2834.46 km from them at a bearing of 253.47°.  According to their 
daytime pattern data, they have a standard field of 76.96 mV/m @ 1 km.  (Their 
IDF for 10kW is 1098.7 mV/m; calculations indicate they radiate approximately 
49 watts in my direction.)
My main nighttime pest is 1580 KMIK Tempe, AZ, whose IBOC-spewing jammer blasts 
me from 482.23 km at a bearing toward me of 262.18°.  Their field toward me is 
approximately 2875 mV/m @ 1 km.  (IDF is 2026.04 mV/m; calculations indicating 
their ERP toward me is about 100 kW.)
On many occasions at night, KMIK has been about as strong as 600 KOGO @ 8 miles 
on its 5kW pattern, 910 KECR @ 9 miles on its 5kW day pattern, 1170 KCBQ @ 9 
miles on its 2.9kW night pattern and 1360 KLSD @ 8 miles on its 1kW night 
operations.
 
I'm also wondering which radio should I use?  Should I use the Tecsun PL-606 
with its narrow DSP filtering?  Or, should I use the GE Superradio III with its 
longer ferrite bar?  In either case, I do have a Select-A-Tenna available, 
which I expect to use as well.
 
Do I have any reasonable chance of hearing them here?

[IRCA] WGBW Test (10-11p PDT): Tried with PL-606 + SAT, not sure?

[Stephen Airy]

Ok, I tried for them using my PL-606 + SAT.  I recorded what I heard and split 
the recording into 10-minute segments (about 3 MB each; the last one is a 
little over 10 minutes).
 
http://www.mediafire.com/?50jurbna2b2l0
 
Timestamps at the beginning of each recording are in the file names.  Does 
anyone hear any hint of the test in any of the recordings?  Or did I not have 
any chance with WGBW sending 49 watts at me from about 1760 miles away and 1580 
KMIK blasting at least 100+ kW with its IBOC from 300 miles away only a few 
degrees off heading?

[Tim Hills]

Offhand I'd say your best bet would be the PL-606 with the 
Select-a-tenna. The DSP might filter out the IBOC crud.


Good chance, probably not, some chance, always.

I'm using a DX-440 and homebrew variable geometry active ferrite. (Don't 
know how else to describe it) The 440 is not known fro it's MW 
performance and I'm still not quite satisfied with the antenna but I'm 
working on it. A lot of fading in and out on 1590 tonight so if they're 
running CW I might catch it even though I'm in the daytime null

[IRCA] WGBW AM -1590, Two Rivers, WI PLANNED TEST OCT. 16th at MIDNIGHT CENTRAL

[Saul DX]

I have an e-mail into the station contact, and am trying to clarify a few 
details. For instance, I presume they mean the midnight leading into Oct 16. 
But I've learned never to presume things. Some other details, too. Soon as I 
know, you'll all know. Sorry about the relatively late notice. But this came 
in unexpectedly, and we'll take what we can get.

I wonder if this is midnight Oct15/16 or midnight Oct 16/17?

[HASCALL, DAVID CIV DFAS]

Saul;

Great news!  If it happens, it will be wonderful.  I have a local on
1590 (Beech Grove) but I can null them and the best open direction is
NW/SE, so it could make it!  I know times are tough for stations but
with a possible test so early in the year, it sounds encouraging for
tests for the '10-'11 season.

Mark Heller is definately a radio guy... he is the owner of WGBW and he's
also an engineer.. a very intelligent engineer.

[HASCALL, DAVID CIV DFAS]

Thanks John and Paul;

Too bad that there are not more radio guys, in radio.  Sad but true -
there isn't a lot of folks like Mr. Heller.  Please John, pass along my
thanks.  Hopefully the 10 Kw will run a test, too.
