Re: [IRCA] WCKL 560.86Khz

AT 05:00 CST can easily detect the het from WCKL under WIND. The loop bearing for both is almost identical, perhaps a few degrees more northerly for WCKL so no chance for nulling WIND. I am located about 40 miles west southwest of WIND's xmtr site at the south end of Lake Michigan. Tom Jasinski

Re: [IRCA] WCKL 560.86

Unfortunately, their pattern is aimed NW, so it mostly hits a few of us Canucks, but it's fairly broad and does throw some signal out west. The het does show on the SDR in SE New England. No audio ever noted, however. WGAN is dominant with WHYN under than. As expected... Craig Healy

[IRCA] Further observations of the NE EWE

This afternoon when I got hom from church and dinner, I gave the the NE EWE a check again. I am very impressed with the results, considering 14X40X14 is not that much of a EWE. I think I will let my neighbors get used to it and later I will raise it a bit. I can go up to 17 feet. I can compare

A radio check at 0050 utc had nothing but a little 189 Iceland, but tuning on MW, once I hit 1134 had a huge het. Croatia was the strongest I've ever had it, with a solid 8 or better. Even the R75 wide AM-sync immediately locked and captured the whole channel with no splatter, but only for

Re: [IRCA] 1610 Two TIS or HARS stations

Hi Dennis, I strongly suspect your second TIS is the one for Chief Joseph Dam near Bridgeport, WA.That TIS gets out well, and it seems to me the message mentions it being the 2nd biggest hydro-power producing dam in the U.S. Highway 17 runs by there also. 73, Nigel Pimblett

Nigel, Thanks for the information. They just gave the number for Park Service information line. It was a 509 area code. Bridgeport also has a 509 area code. They also mentioned a 9 hole golf course and one is listed on the Bridgeport City web-site. Will keep recording for more information
