[IRCA] 1380 kHz Chinese?

2009-09-24 Thread Mauno Ritola

Hi all,
a station in Chinese heard here in Finland at 0300 this morning? 
Frequency seemed to be a bit below; 1379.984 kHz or so. All I can 
understand from the ID is the end " ... Guangbo Diantai". I see that 
WKDM should be in Chinese, but are there other possibilities?


Thank you,

Mauno

Sounds like them, had them at 2200 MDT in null of KOFI with legal ID
and mention of 50,000 watts here in Calgary AB, using a DX-375

New one for the log. Not much gets by KOFI with their monster signal

Re: [IRCA] TIS Stations in Washington

2009-09-24 Thread Bruce Portzer

Colin

At one time, TIS stations could only operate on 530 and 1610, but that's 
long since changed.  They can now operate on any freq between 530 and 
1700, or  maybe 1710.  Locally, we also have TIS stations on 1520, 1500, 
1650, and maybe a couple of others.  530 is a very commonly used TIS 
freq in the Seattle area - the State has several of them around here.  
1610 is not used in the Seattle due to having locals on 1590 and 1620.

There are two TIS stations in the Seattle area.  The dominant one is
operated by the city of Burien, which is between Sea-Tac airport and
Puget Sound.  There's also one in Sammamish, about 15 miles east of
here.  The Burien tx seems to get out quite well, Sammamish less so.  I
can't say if you heard one of them, but they pretty much rule out
reception of China for me
  

TIS on 540khz?

Wow. News to me -
Thought there were only TIS on 530 and 1610.

Probably CBC Uclulet, Colin.  I was hearing Indian music, and of course, I 
started salivating that it might be an AIR station (sure, high hopes!).  
Anyway, I turned on 90.5 CBC Victoria, and sure enough they were in //.  I

[IRCA] Puyallup, WA TP's for 9-24...Chinese Boom In

2009-09-24 Thread D1028Gary
Hello All,
 
As reported by John, Walt, Bruce, Colin and Dennis (at Grayland), the  
morning conditions were very impressive. Didn't have too much time to chase 
TP's 
 here, but did notice that the Mandarin Chinese station on 603 kHz was 
again  dominant over HLSA at 1335-- which makes me wonder why others aren't  
reporting it. 
 
738-Taiwan Fisheries was a 9+ at 1345 with its buzzing carrier, the  
strongest I've ever heard it. I replaced the MP3 on the Ultralightdx file site  
with a recording made this morning, which sounded like the transmitter  was 
next door (and about to explode). Taiwan is a relatively rich country  (unlike 
North Korea), so it's a puzzle why they don't correct the  problem.
 
73, Gary DeBock

This is a good example of where real antennas
trump whip antennas.

As fun as it is to claim success with a barefoot
radio (and having visited Walt Salmaniw's shack within the
last 7 days...) there is no substitute for real
wire out in the open air.

I wonder if JB would mind a visit from Walt and I next
season about this time! ;-)

Good work JB,

Re: [IRCA] 1350 KCAR question

2009-09-24 Thread Neil Kazaross
I first noted these guys in 2002 or 2003 if I recall. There was some superb 
TX cx in Feb and some rare TX loggings here. I did have KCAR a bit prior to 
their sunset one night but wasn't sure whether they reduced power then or 
not.


Anyhow, I do think others can log KCAR if they spend some time on 1350. The 
usual format is classic country.

[IRCA] EXCELLENT TPs from Orcas Island: Sept 24

2009-09-24 Thread John H. Bryant
It's getting difficult to judge "the best of the season, so far," but 
this morning was a candidate, for sure.  From 1300 kHz on down, I 
only had ten channels without at least some Asian audio, including 
the zero-ending channels.  Above 1300, there were ten of the usual suspects.


The more interesting ones:

549: Murmur level that was at lang. recognition fairly early. It was 
the rare visitor R. Mayak out of  either Magadan or Vladivostok.


I had a slew of stations // to North Korea's KCBS 2850, including the 
unlisted 675, running about equal with VoV around 1400


Others //2850 noted were: 702, 720, 819, 873. The 873 transmitter has 
mostly been a widely-spaced LSB + USB growl lately, but today, it was 
doing just wonderfully. They must have found some parts somewhere. 
702.030 had an awful hum: the signal looked like a trident, with the 
outer spikes being somewhat lower and only modulated by hum.


639 and 756 were both doing unusually well as CNR1//5030.

891 had classical Western music on it like Russian stations often 
broadcast, but it was not Mayak and I'm not sure of a likely 
candidate at all. It was not CNR2, either.


990 had an Asian language on it, fairly weak. It was neither standard 
CC, KK, JJ or VV. Some interesting possibilities.


1080 The sub-dominant sounded like North Korea, but I forgot to check 
the 2850 listed //.


It was a fun morning for sure.  I certainly wish that North Korea QSLed!

Re: [IRCA] 1350 KCAR question

2009-09-24 Thread Paul B. Walker, Jr.
Checknig radio-locator, Google maps, and FCCInfo.cmo I see KCAR-AM's tower
is almost 297 feet tall, but not located within at least 1/2 mile of ANY
body of water of any signifigance.

Instead of a skirt up the tower for about 175 feet, which is about 1/4 wave
for 1350Khz, the entire tower is likely the radiotor. The AM tower is alost
home to the 50KW/308 foot signal of KGAP 98.5 which was a simulcast of KEWL
95.1 Texarkana.

*Before anyone says something, the tower may only be 297 feet tall, but that
doesn't mean the FM bays stopp there. Each bay, depending on model, can be
very large and the HAAT refers to the center of radiation so say, a 6
bay, could extend another 20 feet above the top of the tower*

[IRCA] TP DX 9-24-09

2009-09-24 Thread Bruce Portzer
Conditions this morning were about average.  I'd expected better after 
Neil's apparent logging of KFQD last night, but sometimes those things 
happen.


Aside from the usual suspects, I noticed the following:

549   Fairly good carrier 1330-1340, but hard to extract audio from the 
domestic splatter.  Didn't sound //594


621   China producing nice audio at times 1332.

819N Korea amazing signal 1146 despite presence of local KGNW-820

The station may not have dropped to low power at sunset, that is always a
possibility

[IRCA] 1350 KCAR question

2009-09-24 Thread Paul Crankshaw
1350 KCAR, Clarksville TX is listed as low power 410w/65w yet yesterday 
Paul Logan in Northern Ireland  logged this station at 0300 UTC and I 
logged it 0600 UTC. I heard it again at 0600 UTC this morning.


Has the station upped its power and has it been heard  in more distant 
parts of the US over the past couple of days?

Re: [IRCA] Great cx towards NW from IL

2009-09-24 Thread Neil Kazaross
Thx guys.,...was certainly impressive cx towards the NW to put it mildly. 
Things did seem to taper off about 12:45 am CDT. I tried to get something 
more positive from KFQD ..ie some of their channel 2 newscast relay at 1 am 
my time but nada. As for CFPR finally something I could pin down as CBC 
English. I did try to // it to CBU but when I phased Montreal, WLW 's IBOC 
wasn't phased and I couldn't really tell what was in the mess.  When I 
report these two, I will play it safe until I can get something more 
positive and call them tentative.


I was shocked by CFYM 1210. If this is really 250 watts at night (Any 
Alberta DXers here know if they reduce to night power) at 1175 miles it is 
quite a catch.


Anyone needing KYES 1180 should note that they seemed near local-like last 
night. I have doubts that they were using proper night facilities.

Congratulations on hearing KFQD and CFPR.  Inspired by your loggings, I
did a quick bandscan, and KFQD was taking KXL to the cleaners on the
Northwest lobe of the K9AY at midnight PDT.  KNOM Nome is dominating 780
with weather, including temperature for "midtown Nome".  I think KICY is
there on 850 mixing with KOA (soft voiced woman talking on and on) on
the NW lobe, and KHHO nicely rejected off the back.  650 is a mix of
CISL and CKOM with no sign of KENI.

Fantastic Neil!!! Great. I knew you would get CFPR in time as they get
out, but KFQD? What a way to go!!! Congrats!
Also strong here, with KNOM & KICY.
But I am still getting the powerline noise.
