Hi all,
The DX shack here in Edmonds, or thereabouts, is finally operating
smooth and reasonably quiet, thanks to the heavy use of those amidon
FT-140A-J ferrite chokes. Primary antenna is an 8-direction K9AY. Fed
into an W8ZR receiver Multicontroller. This allows good isolation so that
I can use any or all of the two R71A's, SPR4, FRG7, R75, or IC765. Nice.
I still need to recap and AGC mod the two Collins R388's tho.
Sitting on 940 right now, haven't hrd a trace of WFAW test yet.
Recap of tonite's TA DX: This was definately an above average opening,
0346-0520 1134 kHz Croatia in fairly good at times w/local type pop mx
3 long pips and YL ID at TOH
0401-0455 1215 kHz Russia YL tlk in RR presumed nx in also good at times
for the 2nd nite in a row. No sign
of Virgin R.
0413 693 kHz UK audio finally surfaced nicely for a couple
minutes
w/OM ancr in acc EE.
Carriers noted on 783, 828, 855, 864, 873, 981, 1377.
Strong carriers on666, 738, 909, 1017, 1206, 1269, 1422.
Thot for sure I was going to get audio on 1422, but conspicuously nothing...Dave
