Re: [IRCA] kiwa loop

Highly coveted loop. Craig once in a blue moon shows up to a MDXC(Minnesota DX Club) meeting. Maybe when he chooses to retire will he make more. Todd Skaine Bloomington MN On Jan 31, 2016 8:53 PM, "Terry Baugh" wrote: > WOW, So it went for USD$ 790.00 plus $64.50 shipping, a record perhaps? > >

[IRCA] Slightly OT - the longevity of cassette tape

I am just getting around to digitizing some 20+ hours of tapes from the 70's and 80's - Mostly station ID's, medium wave DX and lots of SW stations (now defunct of course...) And it never ceases to amaze me the longevity of cassette - Reel to reel tape is a little different - somewhat older techn

[IRCA] Stations on 1710 KHz

Despite checking the frequency on a nearly nightly basis for years, I can honestly say that I’ve yet to log any station on 1710 KHz. This includes pirates, TIS stations, etc. To my knowledge only one TIS station is authorized to broadcast here, which I believe to be WQFG689

Re: [IRCA] kiwa loop

That was a healthy price, but I remember a Kiwa loop selling for over $800, maybe $850 a couple of years back on Ebay. BTW, if anyone else is is the market for one, a friend of mine in Oregon is also selling his Kiwa loop in excellent condition. Please contact me offline at dx at guyatkins dotcom

Re: [IRCA] Stations on 1710 KHz

Hi Les, I've logged three different TIS stations here within the last 2-3 years. I haven't DXed the channel in a long time (more on that below), so I can't confirm if all three are still on the air. Perhaps the last two were heard testing, I don't remember anymore. The three I'm thinking of are

Re: [IRCA] KIWA loop

I've been impressed with its performance when I've had the opportunity to use one at DX get-togethers and DXpeditions. But the darn thing is just too big and cumbersome for me to own personally. I like having a loop antenna that is easily portable and can fit inside a gym bag -- or a suitca

Re: [IRCA] Stations on 1710 KHz

Yep, those 4 TIS were still on 1710 when aiming my array eastward a few months ago. I am further from WRCR than Tim so sometimes using LSB I can get past their IBOC. 73 KAZ Barrington IL On Mon, Feb 1, 2016 at 7:38 PM, Russ Edmunds wrote: > As far as I know, the first three are on the air. Huds
