How quickly the 1575 jammer became part of the landscape, eh?

Next stop, Puyallup? Gary, I think that a barefoot ultralight might hear it. After all, didn't Guy Atkins hear Farda on an ultralight?

Actually, I have been hearing that one a lot lately. I apparently haven't been mentioning it enough.

The one that surprises me by its lack in your location is the jammer on 1575, Bruce. Sometimes, that can be downright loud here, morning and evening.

My experiences have been very similar to Gary's. I get lots of carriers but not a lot of audio.  I hear little bits of audio when you guys are reporting good audio on the same frequencies. Some of it may be a higher noise floor at my house, but that's not necessarily the whole story.

It's not just limited to TAs. A few years ago you and Walt heard a DX test on 960 from Ontario, which was a total no-show here, so it would appear that Victoria has an advantage in that direction. On the surface, the salt water path seems to be an advantage for you.

That's really interesting, Gary.  I will not make any jokes about the US border protection agency, and move directly into the realm of real speculation.

Victoria city looks out over about 20-60km of salt water along the bearings for Europe and the Middle East. I would have thought that the fact that I'm 5 km or so from the water on those bearings would negate that advantage, but perhaps there is more to learn. I think I feel an experiment coming on: we have a park with about a 40m high cliff (a little one, I know) facing out in a TA direction...

best wishes,

Great job with the new catches from the Middle East, Nick! Unfortunately most of what is being reported in Victoria seems to be held up at the border crossing. Some threshold audio on 864 showed up here about an hour ago, but other than that it's just been carriers at this challenged location.
