[IRCA] TP for 1 Sep from Victoria, BC
Started before 1230UT, and lasting until after 1300. If anything, conditions seemed better earlier this morning, but beyond the first tier of stations, there really wasn't much to be heard. pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly): reasonable audio at times during the period (much of it understandable by a native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise): 774 JOUB 1566 HLAZ not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could be understood by a native speaker 828 JOBB at various times Burbles in the splatter and noise (if lucky, language might be guessed at by cadence of talk, or parallel established by changes in talk or music) : 594 JOAK? 738 likely Tahiti per direction 1287 JOHR? very poor in splash Strongish het, no audio (either undermodulated or ravaged by splatter): 693, not enough to deliver audio in CBU splash; 1008, 1053 1098 best wishes, Nick * Nick Hall-Patch Victoria, BC Canada ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com

Re: [IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 9-1
Hi Derek, BEL2 is the official name for the 100 kw 738 kHz station in Penghu, Taiwan. You may remember the buzzing signal it had this time last year, as in this recording using a 3' bedside loop last September: _http://www.mediafire.com/?njno91gntme_ (http://www.mediafire.com/?njno91gntme) For some bizarre reason this station seems to come in very well at this modest DXing location (in comparison to what the other TP-DXers reported last year). Around October it is often the strongest TP on the band here. 73, Gary In a message dated 9/1/2010 12:42:36 P.M. Pacific Daylight Time, eargaz...@aol.com writes: H that station on 738 BEL2 Thank you.

Just off the phone with CRTC media relations. CHSC owner Pellpropco filed a motion Aug 25 with the Federal Court of Appeal and a stay to appeal was granted Aug 31.

[IRCA] Alberta DU for 1 Sep 2010
Overall, things not quite as good as yesterday here, but as Steve noted, the upper band seemed favored today. All DU audio once again (have yet to hear any Asians in this young season): 828 - 3GI with weak talk 891 - 4TAB on top this am with race results, and the best DU signal of the morning. 5AN audible underneath 1107 - just detectable audio @1240 1116 - usual 4BC, though rather weak this morning 1521 - bits of audio now and again. Sounded like an Australian, with man taking phone calls. 1539 - weak, but could tell it was English, with man and woman speaking. 1566 - Lengthy ad string, then caught nice clear ID as 15-double 6, 3NE New one for me, Australia #39 In from 1240 to past 1300. X-band - none quite made it to audio, but lots of quite decent carriers. The one on 1683 was noted well off freq at 1683.24 or so, and three were noted on 1701, ranging from 1701.01 to 1701.06. 73, Nigel Pimblett Dunmore, Alberta ___ IRCA mailing list IRCA@hard-core-dx.com http://montreal.kotalampi.com/mailman/listinfo/irca Opinions expressed in messages on this mailing list are those of the original contributors and do not necessarily reflect the opinion of the IRCA, its editors, publishing staff, or officers For more information: http://www.ircaonline.org To Post a message: irca@hard-core-dx.com
