Given the distance and the low power, I didn't have much hope for hearing even a carrier from Radio North, Donegal Ireland's DX test. However, if even a *whisper* of the carrier was propagating into the Pacific Northwest, the "Zoom" tool on Perseus would show it.
True to expectations, a review of four hours of Perseus recordings, zoomed in extremely close to 846 kHz, showed nothing but background noise. I was observing 845.997 in particular, as that's the offset reported recently for Radio North. Given the A and K indices lately and other reports of lackluster TA conditions, this was not an opportune time. I found no carriers whatsoever in the vicinity of 846, using the ALA100 loop oriented at 35 degrees. I wonder if Walt Salmaniw in Victoria BC to the north of me was trying for R. North with his Perseus? 73, Guy Atkins Puyallup, WA USA www.perseus-sdr.blogspot.com _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list [email protected] http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: [email protected]
