Hi Nigel, Thanks for your report on the 702 kHz carriers in Alberta. I'm sure that I had the off-frequency North Korean producing the raspy-sounding 702 kHz carrier here this morning. North Korea seems to have a propagation pipeline to here, unlike Australia. 702-2BL (and the other DU's) almost never produce even a trace here in the Puyallup valley, a notorious DU-dead zone. That is one reason why our family made two trips to the Oregon coast this summer (ostensibly for sightseeing, but confidentially, for DU-chasing). 73, Gary In a message dated 9/19/2010 2:57:48 P.M.

I'm guessing the on-frequency one was from Australia, but I had a weaker one on about 702.04 kHz, which could well be North Korean, as you say. Nowhere near audio here, but easily discernable on the Perseus display. 73, Nigel _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com 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: irca@hard-core-dx.com _______________________________________________ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com 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: irca@hard-core-dx.com
