Hi Walt,
 
Thanks for your interesting comments about the Oregon coast DU  propagation.
 
Before our vacations in Oregon, Guy and I had a nice discussion about how  
your Haida Gwaii location had a definite edge in TA and Asiatic  TP 
propagation (over Victoria, Grayland, etc.) and how Patrick  Martin seemed to 
have 
somewhat of an edge in DU propagation over  everyone else. We discussed the 
unusual results of the July DXpedition to  Lincoln City, OR, in which a 
humble Ultralight radio and 3' loop solidly  received many DU's that aren't 
exactly "regulars" at Grayland. After this recent  3-day trip, it's easy to 
become a true believer that the Oregon coast  does indeed have somewhat of a DU 
propagation edge over Grayland, judging  by the 7 previous ULR Dxpeditions 
that John and I made to Grayland over the  past 2 years, where we had nowhere 
near the DU success that these last two  Oregon trips have produced. Guy 
also plans an investigation of the DU  propagation during his current Oregon 
beach vacation, and I'll be very  interested in his report. Unfortunately the 
Asiatic TP's are starting to  seriously compete with the DU's now in NW 
Oregon, so we may need to postpone  further investigation until around next 
spring.

Great  report so far, Gary.  Clearly the Oregon coast sounds like a place 
that  must be further explored and used, now that Grayland has become a 
little less  accessible and quiet.  No doubt the DU stations are simply much 
more 
 difficult to hear up in these parts, and more so on Haida Gwaii (with a  
notable exception of my one night DC only DXpedition to Rose Spit on the 
north  east corner of Haida Gwaii, when the entire band was full of NZ and 
Australian  MW stations (August, 2008).  At the cottage, the DU stations are 
always a  fairly difficult catch, compared to Asia, and even Europe!   .Walt

Hi Steve,

Thanks for the rundown of the DU's in NE  Oregon on Friday.

I was indeed listening carrefully for DU's on  Friday morning in your home
state (at Lincoln Beach), and found it  fantastic. DXing with a C.Crane SWP
Slider (with the Murata filter  installed by you) inductively coupled to a
new 4'  portable PVC  Loop, I made nice MP3's of 558-Radio Fiji One (all
alone), a solid  recording of an ABC station on 846 kHz (with ABC ID), and a
strong 1017  kHz mix of Radio Tonga island music and the 2KY Australian 
horse
racing  station (with both alternating in dominance). Both John B. and I  
had
received 1017-Radio Tonga before at Grayland, but I'm pretty sure  that the
other  3 stations had never been previously received by  ULR's on the west
coast. Many  other nice DU's also showed up again,  like 603-Radio Waatea 
in NZ.

The LW conditions were also great, with  the new stand-alone 7.5" LW
loopstick PL-380 solidly receiving all 5  Radio Rossii LW-TP's (153, 180, 
189,  234
and 279 kHz) yesterday  morning, with 4 nice MP3's made. I plan to write up
the full DXpedition  report (and upload various MP3's) shortly, but as far
as DU propagation  to Lincoln Beach, the vacation was all I could have hoped
for.  Oregon state is great! :-)

Hi Nick, Dennis and Bill,
 
Thanks for the report of the DX action from Victoria this morning,  Nick.
 
This morning at Lincoln City, Oregon, the TP and DU propagation  dropped 
off somewhat in comparison to the previous two days, but there was still  some 
lively action on 531 kHz (with three DU stations mixing), 594-NZ Rhema  
dominant over 3WV (and // 648) and the two NZ National Radio stations on 567 
and  675 kHz fairly strong. 576-2RN had some unusual strength, and 639-Radio 
Fiji One  was at a nice level. By contrast the upper band seemed very anemic, 
and  the Radio Rossii LW TP's (153, 180, 189, 234 and 279 kHz) were nowhere 
near  as strong as yesterday.
 
Guy Atkins is still DXing at an Oregon beach 50 miles to the south  (and we 
haven't yet compared notes), so it will be very interesting to read what  
his DXing results are with his Perseus SDR and (hopefully) a beverage  
antenna strung near the coast.

Good to  see you back in action Dennis.   Inaction described me better at  
sunrise this morning, catching up on sleep after a rather heavy travel day,  
but as an aging DXer, I was up briefly at 1150UT.   Not much MW  then, but 
the LW band was quiet enough to allow whispering audio through from  153, 
180, 189, 234 and 279, all in parallel, with a woman talking,  occasionally 
with a man interjecting.   Surprisingly, the best  frequencies were 180 and 
234, rather than the usual 279, but even for those  the audio was not readable 
even if I spoke Russian.

I think one of the respondents pegged it with "Residential cable modem users"
cannot stream audio -- and my user docs on my network confirmed this --
and yet, Nicecast - which is the software running on this Mac says that
it's server is pinging my Port 8000 connection just fine -
I will try once more and think about upgrading to the business grade
connection - it is about twice as much, but for me, is a tax deduction.

Going to run up the audio stream again at 0340 UTC - 13 minutes from now.

For some, podcasts are better - they are on demand and you can listen when
you want.

Stay tuned.

IP addresses starting with 24 (e.g. 24/8, the entire 24 space)
are called the "cable modem block" which implies that Colin is
trying to feed out on this type connection. This means it
is possible that his provider does not allow inbound connect
requests, from others, to port 8000. In _some_ cases,
upgrading to a "business" class service (from "residential")
(at additional cost) can fix this issue. And running a firewall
at the sending location would also stop this, unless the firewall
admin opened that port to inbound connect requests.

I did a double-take when I saw "CIWW" in your report - they do run oldies, 
but they're my local on 1310.  I think you meant CKWW, right?

[IRCA] NRC/WTFDA 2010 Convention program now available

2010-08-22 Thread Scott Fybush
At least 53 of you are now signed up for the NRC/WTFDA 2010 Convention 
that starts Thursday evening here in Rochester - and if you'd like an 
early preview of what's on tap and where to go, the entire convention 
program is now available in PDF form. (Convention attendees will also 
get a printed version when they arrive in town.)


Download it now at http://www.fybush.com/2010program.pdf - and check in 
with me if you have any questions.


(Perhaps our club webmasters could add that link to their websites, too?)

ALSO: if you haven't yet sent in your registration, you may not have a 
seat at the banquet Saturday night...so check in now if you've yet to 
register. And if you haven't yet confirmed your attendance at the 
Thursday night pre-convention dinner or Rochester Red Wings ballgame, 
please talk to me ASAP so we can make sure you have a seat and a ticket...


We'll see many of you Thursday or Friday here in Rochester!

Colin,
Either the link you posted is invalid, or you didn't stream for very long 
after you sent your message.
Incidentally, many stream links are like;
http://00.00.00.00:/listen.pls
although one can certainly have an m3u link with any title referencing the 
stream URL.
Hope this info helps.

2010-08-22 Thread Nick Hall-Patch
Good to see you back in action Dennis.   Inaction described me better at 
sunrise this morning, catching up on sleep after a rather heavy travel day, but 
as an aging DXer, I was up briefly at 1150UT.   Not much MW then, but the LW 
band was quiet enough to allow whispering audio through from 153, 180, 189, 234 
and 279, all in parallel, with a woman talking, occasionally with a man 
interjecting.   Surprisingly, the best frequencies were 180 and 234, rather 
than the usual 279, but even for those the audio was not readable even if I 
spoke Russian.
 
best wishes,

Nick
