Very limited sunrise DX, and not much of interest earlier. JOUB-774 for example was at its best at 1000UT, more like sunset enhancement at the transmitter. pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly): no Reasonable audio at times during

Paul - So you called the guy. How was he able to give a definitive answer over the phone? Without further details, it seems like he said "no" without any evidence. Or maybe parts of the story were left out??? Chuck From: IRCA

--- Begin Message --- I am getting the signal fairly strong here, it's to my N.E. 17°N on a compass dial. The signal peak and null both match up to 17°N.  2-10-16 I heard the signal from 4:22pm to 11:58pm central time. I also have some audio recording examples from last night. Radio: PL-380.

1566 VOA and 1575 HLAZ had fair audio in the 1330-1415 time frame today, but otherwise it was mostly a case of 'almost' being an interesting morning. Lots of carriers in the X-band, a number close to audio, but only Brisvaani on the high side of 1701 actually produced any, and that was

The recording about the Ham and UHF traffic following the big Bay Area quake in 1989 was really what listening is all about. i was listening when that event happened and it brought back memories. That particular post by Colin Newell and all the posts about the 1500 kHz anomaly are very informative

I thought everyone could use a break from 1500 kHz with a walk down memory lane - I have not listened to this audio in over 25 years - and it was taken off air moments after the Earthquake and the day after. I have over an hour of Amateur radio band traffic and live KGO stuff within minutes of

As a boy of 7-8 years old (late 1960’s) I remember attending a ham radio club meeting in Cleveland, TN. One of the members there had a straight key that transmitted modulated CW to any nearby AM radio. Basically, a wireless code practice oscillator. The range was very limited, probably less

Colin, Thanks for including this in your post. We were there when it happened, looking down on the fire in the Marina but not really grasping what was happening to the homes situated on the gelatinous surface. With no AC, we watched what was going on using our 8” battery operated b TV set. I

Excellent question - the VHF links stayed up and were being recorded at the station - for rebroadcast later. I have around 1 hour of live ham traffic on 20, 40 and 80 meters. If memory serves me correctly, they were off for all of or part of 1 evening. Content from KGO-TV 7 was being carried on
