I'm surprised too. I've heard Taiwan there a few times this season, but
never all that well, so I'm a bit surprised by the strong signals you,
John, et al have been reporting. For whatever reason, the Korean is
more common for me.

Hi Bruce,

I tried out a BOG (Beverage On the Ground) on the MW BCB band for the
first time today. Here are some of the details and results.
The nuts and bolts: I used my Yaesu FT-897D, and a 500' spool of
stranded 14 gauge green ground wire purchased (for $25) from Lowe's.
I simply stripped the insulation

Your observations would be expected since KVI KIRO & KOMO are all much
closer to you than KCIS, which has its transmitter north of Seattle and
has a null in your direction.
According tom the Zipsignal website, http://www.v-soft.com/ZipSignal/ ,
KCIS should be my second strongest local af

WAIS, 770, Nelsonville, Ohio is still on (2228 ELT) w/classic c&w. They're in
the NW corner of Athens county & I'm in the SW, so they're well o/WABC here.
Wouldn't be surprised if they're not on all night.

Here in Puyallup, in the pre-dawn hours, I find that KCIS 630 mixing beneath
another domestic station runs a solid S-9 on the Perseus, but KVI-570,
KIRO-710, and KOMO-1000 are all reading S-9+35dB (aka -35 dBm).

Hi Bruce,
Your repeated Korean loggings on 738 kHz are a real mystery here. I have
had 738-Taiwan Fisheries at huge signal levels for most of September, but
never a trace of any Koreans.
The same weird situation occurs frequently when I compare my TP loggings
with those of Guy Atkins, on
Patrick
I haven't noticed any significant changes in strength for KCIS-630. I
checked just now, and their signal level is similar to that of many
other Seattle stations, i.e. about an S-unit weaker than KIRO and half
an S-unit stronger than KVI

With finally some time to really chase TP's this morning, the 5.5' PVC loop
was set up in my back yard, and ready to go at 1300. Away from the house
wiring and RF pollution, the TP's did indeed have better strength, and the

Hi everyone,
The IRCA Conventon was a blast. Mike did a great job! Thanks so much.
Since I have been back, I have been checking out the dial. The powerline
noise seems to have gone away. At least gone away for the time being.
Anyway, I found KCIS 630 weaker than normal for the past couple of day
I've finally finished organizing my 2009 convention photos. I also have

Glad to have Colin's notes to compare to. My take (and I listened between
