Re: [IRCA] Analog 24 Atomic clock set on UTC

I still have not had any luck finding an analog atomic clock (with hands) that can be set to UTC, but I did find a rather spendy one that MFJ makes 123, that is solar operated 12/24 digital than can be set to UTC, even though the directions do not explain it. A couple reviews covered this. At $79.9

Re: [IRCA] Puyallup, WA TP's for 10-14-- Barely Average

Hi Nick, Thanks for your comments. Despite the fact that Puyallup is quite a mediocre DXing location, the 9' box loop has certainly been a real thriller since I deployed it on October 3. The general TP bearing direction is around 310 degrees, so I usually set the loop facing that way whe

Re: [IRCA] TA's found inside BOG last night

Gil, When I use BOGs for TA's here from the upper midwest, I typically aim somewhat north of my great circle paths to them, but I agree that you'd (Savannah GA) be better served by aiming somewhat south of them. In both cases the goal is the same... to have the TA's still basically in the BOG's

[IRCA] TP for 14 Oct from Victoria, BC

Got lazy this morning and didn't start listening until about 1410UT; there seemed to be a peak of sorts at 1425, but I suspect some of that was the "signal to splatter" ratio increasing as the domestics faded. Still had to work at the DX, and most of what was heard was unexceptional, but as Co

Hello Mauno Yes OM I confirmed this with the station. Unfortunately with no ID I cannot count this as a definite log UNLESS it is the only Radio America station on 920. This is why I was looking for a R.A. affiliates list. Many thanks for your feedback. Barry :-) --- On Wed, 14/10/09, Mau

[IRCA] TA's found inside BOG last night

Kevin, Thanks. I do the same when at home, but it wouldn't work on the beach as neither coax nor my military commo wire have the necessary flexibility to wrap around the Kchibo D96l to easily couple the BOG to the rx. The RS clip lead does. South African Gary Deacon couples his little M37 to his

Actually, not all of them were found stuck in the BOG. After work, I drove about 20 miles from home to Tybee Island, Ga, and at local sunset, rolled out a 500' BOG along the dune line, and floated the BOG to my E-1 via an insulated clip lead so as not to hit the ground side of the PAL connector. T

Thanks for the incentive, Jim; I left NAVTEX running last night and was rewarded with a log of J - Kodiak Alaska overnight (plus all the usual ECNA suspects). Eventually I'll reverse the loop and see what I can get to the south. Brett Saylor Central PA Perseus SDR // 16'x36' North Superloop On We
