[HCDX] TP DX 11/15/16
Between 1615UTC and 1815UTC in Galena, Alaska with a Grundig Sattelit 750 and 225 foot long wire (the radio appears to be 1khz off in some, but not all cases, i have another Grudig SAttelit 750 on the way!) Heard North Korea on 657khz and 873khz today. This time around, 657khz wasn't being splattered to death by the 10,000 non directional watts of KFAR 660 from 300 miles to my east. Here's audio of North Korea on 873khz: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HV5DZKxlg-o Here's audio of North Korea on 657khz: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4Sf0e4ekSM 1566 was abundantly clear, steady and strong. Beyond armchair copy strong. At 17:59:40, the song playing faded out and a FEBC station jingle played then a few seconds of dead air followed by a man talking. Here's audio of 1566khz: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l4fNCZTqsro Had a very strong, very listenable signal from 603khz. 711khz had multiple stations on it, fairly strong but I couldnt ID anything in the jumbled mess. 747 was weak, did hear a man talking. 945khz was about as clear, strong and steady... armchair type copy. 981 was good, fair getting eaten up by splatter from other stations and a little noise. Was a simulcast of 945khz 1008 was good, with a little atmospheric noise, near armchair type copy. Music playing. 1089 had a fast paced man talking, sounded like MAYBE a white noise type jammer in there, not sure. 1575 AFN was desperately trying to make it through with its paltry 1kw, I did match the music to 810khz and get a verifiable ID as "AFN The Eagle" 810khz was fair to good with AP news, Fox Sports, some PSA's and then a promo, into music. 810 was armchair copy the other day.

1545UTC to 1830UTC or so today, 11/14/16 Over half of what I heard, if you subtract the noise, would've been very listenable Had a very loud, clear listenable signal from AFN The Eagle 810khz and a mushy signal from them on 1575. Had mildly to somewhat good listenable Aussies on 1116(weak to poor, noisey and hard to understand),792 newscast with fair to good signal but some noise, 774 fair but noisey with news, 612(probably the best of the aussies) and 963 (fairly strong with music but lots of noise). All of them producing very listenable audio on peaks My loudest Asians were 567, 1350 and 1566. 1566 was like a local here. Also had Pyongyang on 657khz, being splattered to death by KFAR 660, 10kw non directional from 300 miles to my east. Also had good signals from 567, good signal, a little static and noise. 594 almost sounded alot like the 567 signal, slightly less noisey and a bit stronger then 567 729 a little noise but fairly strong, man talking 954 (fairly strong but very noisy and fadey), 1134 sounded like a morning type show, lots of energy and laughing and several characters talking. very solid, strong, steady signal, not much fading, just a bit of noise 1179 strong but a little noise and some splatter from something else 1197 kind a echoy, and noisy, 1208 sounds like it was playing an instrumental version of Home On The Range over and over again, it went on for over 10 minutes! 1503 good signal, with music. Some noise _ 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.
