Willis If you hear the generic ID there is no way of really knowing. But the stations will broadcast their own regional programming at scheduled times and you can be sure then. This happens more often in other countries in the world, especially in Europe. Bill Harms [EMAIL PROTECTED

Re: [IRCA] CKPK-600 OR NOT?

I am not sure about today, but I remember while DXing in the 1960's and 1970's hearing CBR, CBX, and CBU all using their call letters constantly. Bill Harms Is that right, Paul? Has anyone ever heard legal call letters for the CBC AM transmitters? ..Walt

Re: [IRCA] Applications for two new AM stations in Toronto Area (960 and 1350)

On many days in the winter, CKNX is the 920 channel dominant here in Maryland. Bill David Faulkner wrote: Actually, two suggestions come to mind for the CRTC. 1. Move CHIN to 1550 and keep more of the signal in Canada. It is a major pest. 2. Either get CKNX to move to FM or change its

[IRCA] No IBOC on 980

WTAM 980 has turned off its IBOC. I am not sure how long it has been off. Today is 11/12. 970 and 980 are now relatively clear in the daytime. Local channels with IBOC are 600 WCAO, 630 - WMAL, 1010 - WWLB and 1400 - WWIN. All others are off as of this writing. Bill Harms Elkridge, Maryland

Re: [IRCA] No IBOC on 980

WTNT 570 might have IBOC, but it is too weak here in Elkridge to tell. Also I can detect IBOC on WHP 580 Bill Bill Harms wrote: WTAM 980 has turned off its IBOC. I am not sure how long it has been off. Today is 11/12. 970 and 980 are now relatively clear in the daytime. Local channels

[IRCA] carrier on 693 Part 2

Okay, I tried again for the 693 carrier this morning between 0830 and 0900z using the same antennas as yesterday. I could not get an antenna to the NW to work right, so I don't have a good bearing. Anyway, I had some threshold audio this time and with a little work, I might be able to get

[IRCA] Interesting clip of CFZM 740

I just happened across this interesting clip from CFZM 740 Toronto. It seems they are bragging about having Canada's largest broadcast coverage area and they explicitly mentioned the Northeastern States and southern Ontario in their coverage area. At least one station is still trying for a

[IRCA] Carrier on 693 at 0845

I was getting a carrier on 693 at 0845z just now. Is this Japan? Is it too late for Azores? I am recording right now or else I would go back to see if there is any audio. I think there are slight traces on 747 and 774. I need to get a west directional antenna up. Bill Harms Elkridge

Re: [IRCA] [NRC-AM] Carrier on 693 at 0845

Patrick, It is certainly possible, but this will remain a mystery; I went back over the recording and there was just too much slop and the signal on 693 was just barely over the noise floor. Whatever it was, it has faded out. It looks like this is something to chase later. What is

[IRCA] WE2XDR/2

I heard a CW beacon on 505 approx this morning using the call WE2XDR/2 (as close as I can determine). Who or what is this? There was a weaker beacon underneath. Can someone help me out here Bill Harms ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com

Re: [IRCA] WE2XGR/2
