Glad to hear that you heard 990 as a Portuguese preacher. Thought I might
be hearing things. I did try to parallel the web audio of Radio Alvorada
Gospel in Bahia, what looked like the most obvious candidate, but that was
music vs. the preaching. There aren't too many other obvious

Now that's very interesting, and explains why it has been so noisy
even on empty channels. On the up-side, I've added 5 new stations to
the log since the auroral conditions started so I won't complain too
much!

Hi Guys:
The Aurora continued last but was not nearly as productive as the last 2
evenings. For the most post the Aurora just Blanked EVERYTHING out here in
London, Ontario!! It wasn't til after 0100 EDT that things sprung to life with
a pile of Cubans surfacing. One New Station was logged
CRTC revoked the licence on CKMO's request. But I don't know the
legal/procedural rules well enough to know. Still, I doubt they'd have to
actually keep it fired up. There's a whole licecing process that would likely
have to come first...could take a year...so IMO they should be fully off.
Thanks Saul. They had last week when the weather was good for 3 days. I
wonder why they did not shut it out then? But I guess they will in time.
It just seem odd to have a 10 KW OC with no ID going strong for days
after the station goes off for good.

broadcast 875 Hz pips that I found on my 670 kHz recording at 0200 MST
(0900 UTC) on 10 Mar 2012 during the WSCR down time. The pips lasted

That would probably be Cuba's Radio Reloj. You would have heard RR in

There are 26 or 27 pips on Mike's mp3. This isn't morse code, and it isn't from
Reloj. I've no idea what he had and Cuba was way too strong here for my
recording to have these pips but I'll recheck to make sure. No idea what Mike
had..I've never heard a station use that many pip-like sounds.

Yes, I just checked and off the NE EWE, I get S 6-1/2 and I can hear the
pops ad snaps in the carrier. But, I wonder how long it will be there?
Walt, can you phase it down enough to hear anything under it?
You know you're right. RR uses ticks anyway, doesn't it?

The Kitchener 570 station has only been heard here once, and that was when
they were on with a non-directional antenna one night for repairs or some
such. But there it is MAR 10 2145 EST during the aurora on a Perseus
recording. Mixing with WSYR and Reloj.

I'm starting to think there's a technical or legal reason for leaving it

thus preventing the pipes from freezing if the temperature drops below

Mike, I'm not at all sure where the pips came from, but a question in general
is, didn't the old CMQ 640 Havana Cuba move up to 670 a few years back?? Are

WSLM carries the Citadel networks Classic Hits Satelitte feed from Dallas

Makes sense. Looping E-W, and they are a regular here after local sunrise.
Seems like broadcast radio is getting like a super highway with no speed cops.
How long before all the honest broadcasters get run over? Or make enough noise
to get the cops back on duty?

Without taking this thread way off topic and starting a flame war, not any
time soon. The FCC is underfunded and overworked.
The FCC usually only acts upon complaints of interference and cheating if
those complaints are made by other broadcasters directly affected by the
illegal actions.
