[IRCA] KOA-850

2013-10-18 Thread texas4421
For those who may be interested, I am hearing KOA-850 in Denver. What I was surprised about is that they are now carring Coast To Coast AM. Have no idea how long KOA has been doing this. New for me. KOA is weak but readble here in Polk county TN. They are under the 850 station in Birmingham, AL

Hello All, One of the longest Mid-October anomalies in recent memory dragged on for a fourth straight day here as Asian propagation once again seemed stuck between miserable and mediocre. Halfway vibrant audio was again limited to the big gun TP's on 594, 693, 747, 774, 972 and 1053, with 594

Good morning, This morning while trying to get a ID from the NPR station on 890 a Spanish station was heard over/under the NPR station and CJDC. At 1500 utc  (8:00 AM PDT) the Spanish station mentioned Idaho. Wondering if KYWN is Spanish or is the Olivehurst, CA station with a construction permi

Dennis:        KYWN is indeed Spanish now.  Was able to find a few audio clips on radiodiscussion.com that pointed solidly to KYWN.  I was also getting SS on 890 last night, but with clear "Radio Cristiana" IDs, which is KVOZ in Laredo, Texas, running day power way after local sundown.    73, Ri

Today's conditions were similar to yesterday in terms of signal strength. Overall TP reception was rather unexciting, but not as bad as some of the sessions earlier this week. Most of the action didn't start until after 1400, with some stations peaking around 1420-35. There were still a few

[IRCA] Late TP Reception

At 1618 UT, I'm still getting weak TP carriers on 972 981 1287 1566 and 1575. No hope of audio - at best, they're 10-15 db above the noise. Still, it's interesting to receive them 2 ours after LSR. Bruce ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com

Some slightly better conditions today, but all reported here are at peak levels, usually they were much worse. Concerning Bruce's comments about carriersI think by this time of year, they can hang in pretty late, but audio, a whole other thing. This morning, 828 was still delivering burb

I checked today and yes the modem noise is still there, just less with the shield. I have hooked up a switch to just click it off when I want to DX. I can forward my calls to the cel phone so I will still get them. I will have to come up with something else. Maybe there is a dual Modem out there

After three terrible mornings, today was only bad, so an improvement. Finally heard audio again from Japan on 693 and 774, though weak. Best signals were actually around 1300, and then they slid from there. Nearer to sunrise the DU carriers seemed to dominate, and I had traces of audio from the
