This led me today to check the Japan frequencies, using a barefoot GE Superadio II. The het was still there from 1340 - 1400, but still no audio. Tuning to 747, at times JOIB was armchair copy. Tried for it on my Gary DeBock aligned SRF-59 but signal had faded by the time I got the SRF-59 on the right frequency. Still thrilling to get audio on a TP for the first time ever, more so using a barefoot portable in RF noisy Calgary AB. The icing on the cake will be to receive it on the SRF-59, needless to say will try this tomorrow. Will also try the other NHK powerhouse frequencies - too bad I have 50 kW local CHQR-770 which would make reception of JOUB-774 difficult. Perhaps I should move to the west coast:) 73, Deane McIntyre VE6BPO Calgary Alberta _______________________________________________ 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]
