Usually it`s a mix with KDFT, but no sign of Spanish this time; the latter off the air? If it stays off I may finally have a chance of inpulling KNMX by daytime groundwave, which ought to be possible here. 570, at 2147, usual mix of KLIF with groundwave from WNAX SD, way under but audible with SAH of about 3.5 Hz.

Re: [DX] Mistä antennilankaa?
Tuo BKLn lankojen loppuminen oli paha isku, nytkin olen joutunut ohuiden bogien varaan, jotka puput aina syö poikki. Lukeeko BKL tätä listaa? pieni toive langoista. Katselin mm YE:n sivuja, jossa monisäikeistä kohtuullista lankaa lienee olevan kaupan. Siis ohuia lankoja; paksummat voi rakentaa tietysti killusta - voi ne pitää halkaisemattakin. Halkaisematon killu on helppo mitata (käymättä koko lankaa läpi) yhdistämällä toisen pään ja mittaamalla kulkeeko virta. 73 TK Ismo Kauppi ismo_kau...@hotmail.com 12/15/2009 7:55 Terve, Itse olen ostellut pari kertaa huuto.netistä aika edullisesti.

Throughout November December, have noted YL with EZ mx, many US pop tune instrumentals, usually heard well from - 0400 UTC.

Re: [HCDX] 530 CUBA ?????
It is Radio Enciclopedia, Habana, reported numerous times in DXLD. Try searching under that name. Network callsign is CMBQ. It is on 530 to jam Radio Marti, which is no longer on 530. 73, Glenn Hauser --- On Tue, 12/15/09, Konnie Rychalsky dxbo...@hotmail.com wrote: Information appreciated... Call? Location? 530 CM??

Ok, I think I'm tuned on the Cuban station. 12-16-09 @ 0015 UTC. Weak signal here in Western Pennsylvania due to my poor loop antenna.No reception on 50 foot long wire. I can hear a woman announcer with possibly news, some unknown music, but with fairly strong background pulsating lower frequency type het. Best I can do.
