[IRCA] DX Tip for WDXR

-- Pat, I was able to phased down KPOJ 620, no Homer, AK. CKRM Regina, SK with CW music. Heard before, but fun phasing down a strong local station. Dennis, Salmon Creek, WA JRC 545 Criss crossing Ewes NE NW ___ IRCA mailing list

Re: [IRCA] DX Tip for WDXR

Hi Dennis, If you can phase down KPOJ to get CKRM, you should beable to get Homer with the right phase as they are in the opposite direction of KPOJ from you. I do notice that since 620 co-located with 1190, KEX's signal is not as strong as they used to be. SK QRM's them most night. 73,

Re: [IRCA] DX Tip for WDXR

-- Pat, KPOJ 620 was cut down good with the phaser, CKRM was about 50% with KPOJ. KEX is very hard to phase and hear anything underneath. I can cut back the IBOC from KEX, but thats about it. KGO is another hard one to phase. Earlier this evening I did get some station underneath KGO,
