[IRCA] Alberta TPs for 15 Nov 2009

2009-11-15 Thread Nigel Pimblett
TPs??  What TPs??   Is the antenna connected??

This rated as likely the worst morning in a couple of months, with zero audio 
from TPs.  (Well, maybe a word or two on 1575, but that was it)   Even the big 
Japanese were merely rather feeble carriers.

The good news is that my unID on 846 from yesterday turned out to be Tagalog, 
hence Radio Veritas, DZRV, for my 1st Filipino other than VOA.

73,

[IRCA] TP stands for Totally Pathetic in NW Washington - 15 Nov 2009

2009-11-15 Thread satya
I'm glad it wasn't just me - conditions this morning were almost spooky
they were so poor.  I thought I heard a little audio on 594 from Japan,
but that was from a very weak het. I lucked out yesterday and slept in on
a below-average morning, but I should have stayed in bed this morning as
well.

[IRCA] OK, so what's on 594: TPs Orcas Island.

2009-11-15 Thread John H. Bryant
In truth, by body count standards, it was a poor morning... About 
half the normal number in audio, high and low and generally, the 
audio was poor.  On the other hand, there were some real interesting things.


639 CNR1 was walking tall most of my 1440-1525 morning

828: a bit after 1500, it was probably Beijing Business Radio with 
another CC beneath. I presume that NHK2 was off by then


882: Who was that masked man?

918: BIG echos on the usual Shandong at 1450

1098: I'm pretty sure that it was Radio Taiwan International doing 
much better than usual, with 4+1 pips and nice TOH routine at 1500


1575: Radio Farda, presumed, was putting in some ME music under VOA at 1525.

But the big one was, around 1515, who the heck was on 594  I had 
no other channel with presumed NHK1 on it in audio and what I had on 
594 was NOT Japanese. It was also not standard Chinese and it was not 
Korean. further, it had a distinct ECHO. My best guess would be 
Taiwan, there are three transmitters there, two with the same 
program... Taipei 2. I should have tried to // this on the 'net, but 
I did not.  ANY IDEAS!!!  I don't think that it was Mayak, either.

last night and even JOUB 774 was rather poor here on the coast.

This was my morning to sleep in, which sounds wise by others' reports.   John, 
however, is illustrating my mantra that conditions aren't bad, just 
different.you just have to find out which direction they are being 
different from before you quit in disgust, though of  course an open path from 
the middle of the Southern Ocean isn't all that helpful.

So far as I know NHK2 was still signing off at 1540 and 1600UT this last week, 
but maybe they've changed again, at least for their Sunday night.   I wonder if 
JOBB was just really in the murk at that time? There was a period yesterday 
when they were way under unID'd music.

best wishes,

Nick

[IRCA] TP DX this morning

2009-11-15 Thread Bruce Portzer
This morning was a bit better than yesterday, though not by much.  It's 
pretty clear that the season is past its peak, and we can now move on to 
things like Christmas shopping. 

Most of the action was in the 700s and 800s.  The bottom of the band was 
stangely dead today, and the stuff above 900 was below average


Really good audio, most of it could be understood by a native speaker at 
least for a brief time

750   KFQD way atop KXL
774   Japan briefly

Somewhat OK audio, much of it could be understood by a native speaker, 
for brief periods at least

738   mix of Korea  Taiwan
747   Japan
1278   Japan, for about half a minute

Marginal audio, could recognize program content but generally not 
understandable

594Japan, unsualy weak today, mostly just a carrier today
729unid
756   China
783   woman in Chinese, sure wish I could ID this one
828   Japan
891   Unid woman
972   Korea
981   China
1098   Unid, didn't sound like Chinese or Japanese, maybe Korean, maybe 
something more exotic
1566   HLAZ, the audio might have been imaginary but I'm giving them the 
benefit of the doubt


Carriers with real or imaginary audio
585 603 639 657 666 693 765 819 837  846 855 864 873 909 936 945 1026

I had someone talking at 1455, but  didn't record that part of the band 
after that.  The language was decidedly not Chinese or Japanese.  My 
brain wanted to say Mongolian, but that was probably just wishful 
thinking.  I had unlisted CRI here at Grayland in early March, with 
theme music  ID in Chinese - I'm still trying to figure that one out.


1575: Radio Farda, presumed, was putting in some ME music under VOA at 
1525.

Can't help you much there...I recorded that part of the band at that 
time but had only a carrier at 1515.  I was doing good to hear the time 
pips and a few syllables of talking at 1500, which is very unusual for 
them here.

2009-11-15 Thread D1028Gary
Hi John,
 
It's nice to see somebody else interested in the late-season  shenanigans 
on 594 kHz, and I'd be very interested to hear your MP3 from this  morning 
(around 1515).
 
Because of the Korean-language station mystery recently I spent a lot  of 
time on the 594 frequency, making multiple MP3's of the JOAK-KBS1 mix (four  
good ones now) and the JOAK-UnID Chinese mix (two good ones). I found  that 
JOAK's NHK1 programming often includes content that would be pretty  
deceptive to someone expecting standard Japanese speech, and that while JOAK  
would 
occasionally be weaker than the KSB1 Korean or the UnID Chinese  station on 
594 khz, it would never be completely absent. Since you apparently  heard 
an isolated station on 594 khz, it would seem strange that  JOAK didn't at 
least have a trace on the frequency, at that time.
 
Linked below are two recent MP3's of 594-JOAK fighting it out with  
co-channels, on the 9' box loop. The first recording has the KBS1 station  
competing with (and occasionally overtaking) JOAK on November 10th, and the  
second 
one has the UnID Chinese temporarily on top of JOAK on November  1. Although 
JOAK would occasionally be weaker, it was always around, which  makes it 
seem strange that it wouldn't at least have a trace in your 1515  recording 
this morning.
 
73, Gary

[IRCA] Kona TP/DU November 15

2009-11-15 Thread cafe

Full report coming --

I listening from 0930 to about 1015 UTC before I went to bed...
and it was chock-a-block up and down the dial
with JJ, Russian, Aussie, KK, CC and some Island stuff.

Doing things a little differently --
not really referring to any guides directly (WRTH, PAL, etc)
just listening, noting times, frequencies and details...
such as language and QRM if any.

I can sort of see how Hawaii ties in with the rest of
the WCNA scene -- as, however strong the signals are
(they are not gangbusters by any means...) they simply
have very little interference from here in the Hawaiian
Islands - and there are wild variations between days.
And what is also interesting is the kind of WC reception
I am getting - how little of it most of the time...

Heading to HILO next week for another angle on the mainland.

In Nfld, Jean Burnell and Saul Chernos have Afghanistan 1296 best ever for 
either of us ... really solid. Lots of Libyans, but also good north into UK, 
also Sankt Petersburg on 1188, 612 Maroc.

 

Didn't clue in till tonight that Algeria 891 is off, perhaps for good (story 
there???) - Portugal R Sim jingle and Port Pop rather strong, something else 
there too. 

 

Nothing truly far out though Nigeria 917 was pretty good. 


Jean had very weak JJ on his Perseus recording on 774. I was fast asleep, we 
only had plain wire out then, and cx seemed bad. Improved though this eve. 
Wires now fully functional. Got a late start yesterday afternoon.

 

Rain and wind and snow headed our way this week. Black flies today.

 

No sign of Big L on 1395...it was supposed to have started by now.

[IRCA] Re AOR 7030+

2009-11-15 Thread Chernos Saul

Thank you to all who helped re AOR 7030+ query. I have inputted UTC and 
memoried the 9-Khz band as needed here. I won't be able to download the manual, 
which one of you kindly sent, at least while I am stuck with dial-up here. But 
it is still appreciated because I'd be really stupid to forget the computer, 
not just moderately stupid to forget the manual.


Like I said, it's dial-up here, and not all that good a connection, so missives

Re: [IRCA] Re AOR 7030+

2009-11-15 Thread Chuck Hutton

Hi Saul - 

 

You're making me wish I was there for the fun. Visons of Newfoundland are 
dancing in my head.

 

As for the Afghan, best of luck. I'm hoping you guys will also try Pakistan on 
1152. I had someone signing on at 0200 last year and hoped it was Pakistan but 
couldn't pull enough audio to prove anything.

 

Say hi to Jean and Ken and Ollie.

 Subject: [IRCA] Re AOR 7030+
 
 
 Thank you to all who helped re AOR 7030+ query. I have inputted UTC and 
 memoried the 9-Khz band as needed here. I won't be able to download the 
 manual, which one of you kindly sent, at least while I am stuck with dial-up 
 here. But it is still appreciated because I'd be really stupid to forget the 
 computer, not just moderately stupid to forget the manual.
 
 
 Like I said, it's dial-up here, and not all that good a connection, so 
 missives will be brief.

[IRCA] TAs on the West Coast tonight

2009-11-15 Thread satya
Hi all:

Not bad TA conditions once again.  675 (Radio Maria) , 693 (BBC 5) and
1134 (Croatia) are all in with recognizable audio, and there are a few
other channels that seem to have promise, including 747 and 1017.

[IRCA] Alberta TAs

2009-11-15 Thread Nigel Pimblett
After a slow start this evening conditions seem to have picked up with TA audio 
noted on 531, 855, 675, 864, 981, 1134, 1575.   864 is Armenia rather than 
France, and 855 appears to be Romania.  981 sounded Arabic, but is Algeria not 
gone from there?
  Good to the east also as Montreal was coming through CBW.

73,

[IRCA] Kona TA/TP/DU for 16th November - Skype anyone

2009-11-15 Thread cafe
Yes I did have an actual carrier on 1575khz 20 minutes prior to sunset.

Long gone now -- will look for others.

If anyone wants to show up after 0850UTC via
Skype (userid - coffee_experts) I can treat
anyone to TP/DU audio via the computer
connection live.

Just a thought.

Meantime - must ferret through this mornings miniDisc
catches and edit over to the ZOOM H4.

[IRCA] TA ho hum

2009-11-15 Thread Nick Hall-Patch



Given the K's and the solar wind velocity, it's not surprising that TA's are 
down.   The surprise is how many carriers there are (including a pair 
bookending my local on 900kHz), and that there's poor but definite audio on 855 
fairly consistently around 0330UT.  Have also heard traces of audio on 1215.
