[IRCA] Oklahoma TP DX 12/31/16

2016-12-31 Thread Richard N Allen
The year is ending with only a whimper of TP DX here. There were intermittent traces (no audio) of a signal on 1566 kHz at 1317-1344 GMT in moderate XERF splatter. Best wishes to all for a happy 2017, with bundles of good DX. Richard Allen, near Perry OK USA, Skywave & FSL. Sent from my iPad

Visited the SF Bay Area over Christmas and noted KCBS's IBOC off, too (first time in many years). Actually, only one IBOC was audible during the day, KCBC, 770. - John ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/li
