Hi Nick, Dennis and Bill, Thanks for the report of the DX action from Victoria this morning, Nick. This morning at Lincoln City, Oregon, the TP and DU propagation dropped off somewhat in comparison to the previous two days, but there was still some lively action on 531 kHz (with three DU stations mixing), 594-NZ Rhema dominant over 3WV (and // 648) and the two NZ National Radio stations on 567 and 675 kHz fairly strong. 576-2RN had some unusual strength, and 639-Radio Fiji One was at a nice level. By contrast the upper band seemed very anemic, and the Radio Rossii LW TP's (153, 180, 189, 234 and 279 kHz) were nowhere near as strong as yesterday. Guy Atkins is still DXing at an Oregon beach 50 miles to the south (and we haven't yet compared notes), so it will be very interesting to read what his DXing results are with his Perseus SDR and (hopefully) a beverage antenna strung near the coast. 73, Gary DeBock (back in Puyallup, WA) In a message dated 8/22/2010 8:31:08 A.M.

Good to see you back in action Dennis. Inaction described me better at sunrise this morning, catching up on sleep after a rather heavy travel day, but as an aging DXer, I was up briefly at 1150UT. Not much MW then, but the LW band was quiet enough to allow whispering audio through from 153, 180, 189, 234 and 279, all in parallel, with a woman talking, occasionally with a man interjecting. Surprisingly, the best frequencies were 180 and 234, rather than the usual 279, but even for those the audio was not readable even if I spoke Russian. best wishes, Nick At 13:21 8/22/2010, Dennis wrote: >Listened from 1236-1350 utc. > > >153 RUSSIA, Radio Rossii 1237 very weak with music. >180 RUSSIA, Radio Rossii 1239 very weak with music. >279 RUSSIA, Radio Rossii 1240 fair with man in Russian. >738 TAHITI,? 1311 weak to fair at times with Island music >774 JAPAN, JOUB NHK2 1241 weak with Japanese. >1566 REPUBLIC OF KOREA, HLAZ 1247 weak to fair with religious music. > Briefly at 1304 with music, fair at times. > > >Dennis, >Salmon Creek, WA >JRC NRD 545 >Ewe NW >Local Sunrise 1320 utc >_______________________________________________ >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] ***************************** Nick Hall-Patch Victoria, BC Canada _______________________________________________ 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]
