[IRCA] Alberta TP/DU for 2 Sep 2013

2013-09-02 Thread Nigel Pimblett
A bit better than yesterday. The only audio was Australia on 1548, very weak, but that's still an improvement on yesterday. Overall, seemed to be a mix of DU and TP carriers, with 1566 very close to audio. A few unusual ones, such as 1332. 73, Nigel Pimblett Dunmore, Alberta __

I've only seen a het, but based on the fact that it stays on past sunset in most other countries (and after almost all the other TA hets disappear) - I'd guess it is Mauritania. Aaron ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalam

Tim, For what it worth, at my place, it is too early in the season to hear Syria. Mauritania is just dominant these days on 783 and the same goes for some North African stations. Sylvain Naud Portneuf, QC Le 2013-09-02 18:27, kilokat7 a écrit : Thanks everyone. I've tried the link again on

Tim, I think you'll find that Mauritania becomes a regular for you with WBBM phased although rarely will it be strong and many times just threshold levels. You reported them around 0330 and by that time Syria is long gone this time of year, if it is possible at all this early. From what I've hea

We posted it to RealDX, and the consensus was Syria for the male/female talk, and the chanting was too deep in the mud to get enough to ID it.  Absent anything more definitive, we logged it as presmuned. In our March 2013 DXpedition Mauretania was ID'ed for us via RealDX also.   Russ Edmunds 15
