[IRCA] New IRCA site design

I have offered to bring the IRCA website into the 21st Century with a stylish corporate design built on a modern PHP/MySQL Wordpress powered platform - I hope to have something up and running within 48 to 72 hours - and will be open to all kinds of observations, suggestions and criticisms.

[IRCA] Nov 29 TP look see...

Currently muddy audio on 1593, 1575, on again, off again on 1566, 612 and a couple of others. Lackluster would be an overstatement. 1500 UTC Colin Newell - CoffeeCrew.com - VA7WWV - Victoria - BC ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com

[IRCA] 27th pre dawn TP's.... Pretty much anywhere...

Running out of descriptors on the lifeless morning sessions... Today a feral dog ran away with the DX. Only 1566 shows any signs of life because it's the biggest dog on the dial. Colin Newell - CoffeeCrew.com - VA7WWV - Victoria - BC ___ IRCA mailing

[IRCA] Nov 23 - Victoria TP's live...

[IRCA] TP Victoria 18th mobile

http://youtu.be/JabpGC1h5J8 I must have picked one of the better mornings in a long time... Korea at good levels. Audio at times fair on 747, 774, 828, 972 and *whoa* actual jammer on 1053! Colin Newell - CoffeeCrew.com - VA7WWV - Victoria - BC ___

[IRCA] Slavic talker on 1520

Just got a text from a soon to be IRCA newb. Wondering who the Slavic talker is on 1520 mixing with a C station... I said, "Stand by while I Czech..." Nyuk. Ideas anyone? Colin Newell - CoffeeCrew.com - VA7WWV - Victoria - BC ___ IRCA mailing list

[IRCA] Who's on 1469.70

Hitting Chinese speaking hard with a massive 300 hz Het on the low side.. + or - 7 hertz according to my reckoning... 0715 UTC / Drake R8 / Flag & Wellbrook through Phaser... Colin Newell - CoffeeCrew.com - VA7WWV - Victoria - BC ___ IRCA mailing list

Re: [IRCA] TP 14 Nov Victoria version

In my sesh, 1415 until around 1505 UTC, I enjoyed around 20 seconds of arm chair audio on 1575 kHz VOA - around 50 minutes prior to LSR. Despite what Nick's fish barrel indicated: gd. Signals occasionally on 702, 774, 828, 846, and a few others... I had none of it - periodically I would

[IRCA] Saturday Nov 14 TP's dream weavers - live

1575 kHz occasionally at good levels with Lang talk... Lower band a series of hets. Ah! Just heard Yankee Doodle Dandy snippet... VOA.. I said this was live didn't I? Oh look, Toonces the cat just wandered into the shack... She looks bored... Toonces, what are you doing with that Red Phillips

Re: [IRCA] Early TP's - 774 Japan armchair -- 0708 Khz

Re: [IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 11-6

Mark touches on something very dear to my heart that I have been thinking about a lot lately: A.) it has been decades since I have enjoyed occasional reception from Central and South America from Victoria B.C. With far less sophisticated receivers and antennas. Why is that? (And I am likely

Re: [IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 11-6

Between the Spring of 1975 and the fall of 1976, I heard most of the countries in Central America, a few in South America and a dozen or so countries in Europe, Africa and the Middle East... On a DX150B and some random wire antennas that actually passed over a 220V home power line. On medium

Re: [IRCA] Puyallup, WA TP Carriers for 11-4

No report: my instincts directed me to stay in bed. Listening earlier in 'the day' at 0630 UTC revealed very shaky conditions indeed - received numerous reports of Aurora and band openings on 2 meter VHF. Colin Newell - CoffeeCrew.com - VA7WWV - Victoria - BC > On Nov 4, 2015, at 7:01 AM,
