Hi Colin and Guy, Thanks for your recordings of both 603-HLSA and 594-JOAK, both of which were very interesting. During the past month, 603-HLSA has been mixing with a Mandarin Chinese station here on most mornings, which may be the 10 kw Beijing station. I made a couple of MP3's of the Chinese station when it was dominant on the frequency, and will submit them to Jacey Wang (our TP-group Mandarin translator), in the hope of nailing down a location for the transmitter. 73, Gary In a message dated 10/1/2009 8:23:09 P.M.

Hi Colin, I enjoyed your recording of 603 and 594 from this morning... those are impressive signals from urban Victoria with just the whip antenna of a barefoot Eton E1! Your reception made me curious as to the level HLSA and JOAK were being heard this morning on my antenna, at the same time (I presume your top-of-the-hour recording was at 1400 UTC). I "rewound the tape" on Perseus, and made a similar recording: http://www.mediafire.com/?m2n1oymd0dj The recording starts with 603 HLSA at 1359:30 and goes through the ID and time pips to the orchestral theme and female announcer at approximately 1300:15. Then there is a couple seconds of silence, followed by 594 JOAK at approx. 1359:45 to 1400:20 UTC. I also note another station in the background of Korea at the 00:35 point into the recording, and behind Japan at 1:09-1:12. Reception was pretty darn good, as it turned out. The biggest difference-maker was my outdoor antenna most likely, a 45 ft. high X 35 ft. wide broadband terminated loop antenna aimed northwest. 73, Guy Atkins Puyallup, WA http://fivebelow.squarespace.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Date: Thu, 1 Oct 2009 08:55:23 -0700 > From: [email protected] > To: Mailing list for the International Radio Club of America > <[email protected]> > Subject: [IRCA] Victoria TP's for 10/01/09 - 603khz MP3 from Korea > Message-ID: <[email protected]> > Content-Type: text/plain > > > > http://www.dxer.ca/file-area/doc_details/261-oct-1-2009-603-korea-594-japan-on-eton-e1-barefoot > > 603khz with time pips and korean announcements - > followed by tune-down to 594khz and huge Japan signal > > Eton E1 barefoot. > -- > > .......................................................................................... > Colin Newell - Editor - CoffeeCrew DOT Com --- > Victoria, British Columbia - Blog - Coffee DOT BC DOT CA > DXer DOT CA and Bob Harris DOT 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] _______________________________________________ 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]
