Re: [IRCA] 1690.7 not audible

Nick,

No luck here as yet either, except for a decent carrier a couple nights
back. Conditions tonight don't seem all that great. This afternoon I
checked the directivity of the Eastern beverage and it is operating just
fine, but DX cx to the East so far aren't too good tonight.

73,

Patrick

 Had high hopes for 1690.7 this evening, with a carrier equal in
 strength to those on 1690, at least briefly just before 0500UTC,

1690 (and 1690.7) was a bust here too Nick. In fact all x-band signals were 
very much down in strength. Maybe one noght we'll get to hear it.

Mike,

At around 0400 EDT, I had a carrier on 1690.7, and maybe threshold
audio, but that is a guess at best. The strongest carrier so far. I hope
as Fall gets on, I can get some audio. I tried upper SB (ECSS), AM in
1.8/.5, etc. I even tried the 2.4 filter on the SPR4 with the notch, but
nothing came up that I could understand. The signal from the carrier
varied a lot. Probably being just a high frequency.

73,

Patrick

That's about what I've heard up here Pat, but not last night. It was about 3 
or 4 nights ago when the carrier/het was at it's strongest.

Had high hopes for 1690.7 this evening, with a carrier equal in 
strength to those on 1690, at least briefly just before 0500UTC, and 
using the northerly Flag antenna.  Since then, however, it's just 
been getting weaker.  Another night perhaps.

best wishes
