[IRCA] TP non DX for October 9

2013-10-09 Thread Bruce Portzer
My DX was pretty much like everyone else's today. Most of the usual powerhouses took the day off. Only two NHK Stations were heard, and they were just barely audible. It was really surprising to not hear any trace of 747 972 or 1566. Good Nobody Fair See above Poor 693JOAB weak pips 14

Mike, Back in the 1960s, Seward AK was a great place to DX from. I think there was only one or two NSP stations in the state and with only 18 stations the whole state, the dial was pretty open. TAs over the pole, and all of the Asian DX. I get a lot more DUs here, than I got there. Latins were

Alaska must be a great place to DX from. Close to Continental U.S., Canada, Russia, and anything that comes over the "pole". Plenty of legendary stations inside the state as well. I know a couple DXers managed to log KFQD at the Seaside OR IRCA convention. Unfortunately I couldn't. Seward is a n

Hello All, Nigel certainly hit it on the head, even for the coast-- a real clunker of a morning, which no doubt sent DXers scrambling to check their antennas. It looked like there might be no TP audio at all here, but 594-JOAK finally broke through with poor Japanese conversation at 1345,

[IRCA] TP 9 Oct, Victoria version

2013-10-09 Thread Nick Hall-Patch
After the geomagnetic upset, I was expecting a bit of DU action this morning, but it seemed there was just a general suppression of all signals. The only audio, surprisingly, was from a couple of the Japanese big guns. pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at

Easy to do a quick report today, as after a couple of better days, it was back in the tank today. Zero audio, just several poor to fair carriers. 73, Nigel Pimblett Dunmore, Alberta ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kot

Re: [IRCA] ] EBS breaks

I assume you mean EAS, which it's been for years. it is likely some station doing a test.. and is automatic. So it just fires off on it's own. We have 3 stations where I work and it's impossible to co-ordinate all 3 stations, so it just lands where it lands. Paul On Wed, Oct 9, 2013 at 8:33 A
