Trans-Pacific JBA MW carrier search, January 19 at 1327-1345: Looping NW on the DX-398 so from Japan/E Asia: 594, 693, 747, 774, 828, 972, 1323, 1422, 1566. From WSW so Australia: 702, 1548. Uncertain DF: 1503, 1512, both nothing more than 10 kW from either. LSR here was 1341 UT. 1566, from 1342 Jan 19, paying special attention to surely 250 kW Jeju, South Korea, but seems to have a slight beat from second carrier, China? But no more than 10 kW there. At 1344 a 3+1 timesignal(?) cuts thru and then the station weakens, i.e. when FEBC change antenna patterns and languages from Japanese to Chinese. Is that non-hour TS typical of HLAZ? One of the clubs has compiled a timesignal reference but I have not found it again (Glenn Hauser, OK, WOR) This report despatched at 0028 UT January 20 _ Hard-Core-DX mailing list Hard-Core-DX@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/hard-core-dx http://www.hard-core-dx.com/ _______________________________________________ THE INFORMATION IN THIS ARTICLE IS FREE.
