Re: [IRCA] TP's for 01-30-09
Didn't hear the longwave that Dennis did this morning, but started later than he did, at around 1440UT, went to 1510, then a few snippets after. Not really inspiring, and like the last couple of days, pretty erratic. Did get 594 and 774 and full strength a couple of times, and they were still in, though not as strong, as 1600UT approached. Otherwise, 828 and 747 took up the next spots, and 1566 and 972 (both finally faded up around 1530 UT) , so no surprises there. 567, 954, 1134 and 1593 (seemed CNR-1) took up the barely there category. Not much sign of DU, though had a good DU het on 792.

I tried the KIWA loop today, but could not cut the hash. With the u-shaped fence antenna faint audio can be heard. Around sunset KTSN is usually heard from Elko, NV.

Re: [IRCA] What's your closest unheard AM station?
By air, i was probably 20 to 25 miles from my closest unheard station day or night. Now, my closest unheard by night was barely 15 miles. the station was 5KW, but so directional on a semi high frequency, you could be driving down the highway into town, and see their blinking 3 towers up on the hill and not get a listenable signal.

Hey Rick: Over here on Bainbridge, 930-Bellingham is also tough to get even with the mostly-water path. Usually 930-Yakima comes in if anything during the day - forget about it at might.

Re: [IRCA] What's your closest unheard AM station?
My closest unheard is 1480-KAVA in Pueblo, CO (120 miles south). This is due to 1480-KRAE in Cheyenne, WY which is a fairly strong daytimer and KAVA not having much of a daytime signal. KAVA has a directional daytime setup (2-towers) likely protecting KRAE (which is in this direction). Local 1490-KCFC doesn't help by running an adjacent-channel jammer. My next closest unheard is 1240-KCRT in Trinidad, CO (210 miles south) which does not get out well at all.
