[IRCA] 972-HLCA on the Warparth

For anyone interested, here is another MP3's from the Korean big gun's huge signal from 1130-1200 UTC (very) early this morning. An SSB check of the band at the bizarre hour of 1125 revealed that HLCA had a carrier strength even greater than that of "Freedom 970" in Portland, Oregon at the time.

[IRCA] TP DX in Seattle on Pi day

Today's TP DX was rather impressive. I felt like I'd been on a DXpedition when I went through the SDR recording, and spent a couple of hours digging stuff out. Nonetheless, the stuff I heard was merely a good day at home and not a bad day at the coast. The Chinese were more numerous than in

[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 3-14

Hello All,   It was another wild and wacky morning for huge signals from the big gun Japanese and Korean TP's, but aren't we getting somewhat used to it by now? A spot check of the band at 1125 UTC revealed thunderous signals from the NHK big suns and 972-HLCA-- prompting a quick FSL antenna s

In Masset, conditions were average. Lot's to hear, but nothing new, and I was mostly down due to Perseus glitches. All Asia. 73, Walt On Saturday, March 14, 2015, richa...@perryisp.net wrote: > 747 JOIB? - barely audible talking at 1042-1043. Heard again in > WSB-750 splash at 1120-1121. >

[IRCA] Bell & Howell 5 MHz oscilloscope for sale

I bought this at a garage sale over 20 years ago and haven't used it. It doesn't work but it does have a large lit "dot" that comes on but doesn't sweep. It comes with all the manuals that I have with it including the assembly manual. I suspect that the person who built it made a mistake. I remembe

[IRCA] KYES

Checking SDR recordings for the last couple of nights I've noticed 1180 KYES with a good signal here in Alberta overnight, so apparently something's amiss there.I have not noted them previously as a regular offender, so likely a technical problem. Anyone needing KYES should have a listen to

I logged a new station today. 3/14/15 1510 kHz. XEQT, Monterrey (Escobedo), Nuevo León, México (250 Watts @ 1204 km/748 mi). Heard at 0629-0735 GMT with música variada. "Equis Ay Koo Ee" (XEQI) ID, including QTH "Monterrey, Nuevo León", at 0701. Poor to fair signal strength. ULR station #105

[IRCA] Supercharged TP's Again (1130-1200)

Hello All,   For those of you on the west coast who have access to a decent radio, please check out the Asian signals ASAP! Both Japanese and Korean big guns were pounding in from 1130-1230 UTC already. (I just came in to get out of the rain for a while).   747  JOIB   Sapporo, Japan   3+1 p
