Re: [IRCA] KPWX 1130 Mount Angel S-9+50 db at 1359 utc
Dennis, I am also surprised with the signal of KWPX as when they were testing, I could easily get CKWX fine. The NW and NE EWE's are very directional and I have the nulls peaked perfectly. Even KEX is 20DB down from the SW EWE, and it is not directional towards Portland/the valley. The NE EWE is aimed pretty much at Seattle/Vancouver. CKWX had S9+10-15 DB days, but now is under KWPX at S9+30-35!!! I don't have a wire directional to the SE. If I did, I can imagine the signal! I cannot understand how they can get away running an ERP of 50KW to the North. Apparently the FCC oked that. Don't we have to protect CKWX? CKWX seems to think so. Right now, CKWX is losing their Frasier Valley listeners. As it gets towards Winter more, KWPX will cut into more of their day, with the darkness path. It will be interesting to see how this plays out. 73, Patrick Patrick Martin Seaside OR KGED QSL Manager ___ 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] KPWX 1130 Mount Angel S-9+50 db at 1359 utc
Patrick, I was sure surprised at the strength of KPWX signal since they signed on the air. KPNX is strong here and my antennas are aimed Northwest and Northeast. Tomorrow I will use the Palstar 30 cc and the high performance whip and get a more accurate signal strength reading. Thanks to Scott for explaining the FFC sunrise/sunset times. They are lowering their power at the proper time. It will be interesting to see if tomorrow KPWX lowers power at 6:30 PDT. Their sister station on 1150, KLPM signs off completely at night instead of powering down to 47 watts.

[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 9-30
Hello All, TP propagation took another definite upturn this morning here, with excellent conditions to the Chinese mainland, as well as to Japan. Yesterday's threshold Chinese audio on 909, 918 and 936 kHz became fair audio this morning, and the 675-NHK1 5 kW Japanese synchros won out over VOV-Hanoi on the frequency around 1403, for an all-time new TP logging here. Apparent Chinese stations on 684, 792 and 1107 kHz were close to audio, and the 1053-Chinese "restaurant music" station was giving the Korean Jammer a tough fight for the frequency. Around 1325 all five of the frequencies from 909-945 kHz had either Chinese audio or strong carriers, and a search of the middle and higher band's normally Chinese frequencies almost always produced the same result. The short-duration sunrise enhancement at this modest inland location didn't provide enough time to go after all of them, and if someone had been in Masset or Grayland this morning, they probably would have had Chinese DX that was off the charts. The following were heard on a C.Crane SWP model (7.5" loopstick) inductively coupled to a 9' sided PVC tuned passive loop (in the back yard): 558 JOCR Kobe, Japan Poor-fair music in and out around 1316 585 JOPG Kushiro, Japan Poor Japanese interview program, 1319 594 JOAK Tokyo, Japan Good Japanese talk program at 1320, // 585 603 TP-Mix UnID Chinese fighting it our with HLSA pop music, 1321 639 CNR1 China Synchros Good strength all morning w/Chinese talk 648 VOR Razdolnoye, Russia Chinese program at excellent level, 1333 657 R.

[IRCA] 675 kHz NHK1 Japanese Synchros
Hello All, There was another bizarre fade-in during TP-DXing this morning here, and I was wondering whether anyone else noticed it. 675-VOV was all alone on the frequency in Vietnamese with a fair signal at 1401 (with a YL apparently reading news) when the Hanoi signal took a dive, mixing with a co-channel, and then fading out completely as it was replaced by a Japanese-speaking YL reading the news at a fair level, // 594 kHz. This all happened within 2 minutes, recorded in the MP3 at _http://www.mediafire.com/?z6ss6c9873e7j4n_ (http://www.mediafire.com/?z6ss6c9873e7j4n) (headphones recommended). The 5 kw Japanese NHK1 synchros on 675 kHz seem to be common in Masset (John B. reported them as almost daily visitors in the 2007 DXpedition), but this was the first time they were ever heard here. This was received on the 9' PVC loop, for the 7th new TP logging of the new season. 73, Gary DeBock (in Puyallup, WA) ___ 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] Pigs Fly! KFAQ-1170 off
** OKLAHOMA [and non]. Tnx to a quick tip from Bruce Winkelman, Tulsa that his local KFAQ 1170 was off at 0355 UT Sept 30, I hurried to check the frequency. Around 0405 UT quite a jumble there, and nice to have the IBOC off too. But now there is some IBOC QRM from KSL when aiming E/W. Two Spanish speakers, one with music, one with talk, when that is nulled. One ran a slogan ID but could not catch it. NRC AM Log shows no US nighttimers in Spanish on 1170; WRTH shows eight nighttimers in Mexico, no more than 2.5 kW from Puebla and Aguascalientes. 0420 check, KFAQ is back on but weak, and easily nulled. Must be backup transmitter, and still no IBOC. At 1650 UT, KFAQ still seems weaker than usual, but this is subjective as I don`t pay much attention to its normal level. But, no IBOC audible now either, so probably still on backup. If this continue into UT Oct 1, should enhance DX possibilities on 1157-1183 kHz. Is there anything about this situation on the KFAQ website, titled ``Tulsa`s Conservative Talk Radio Station`` http://www.1170kfaq.com/ (even tho they don`t have Rush, just othercreeps like Beck, Ingraham, bits from O`Reilly, Huckabee)? No. How about the radio-info.com OK board? http://boards.radio-info.com/smf/index.php?board=224.0 No, again, tho participants there often post inside info on what`s going on in the market (Glenn Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST) ___ 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

[IRCA] Undercover Radio - The Fifties On Air
For anyone interested: --- Media Release Radio Heritage Foundation www.radioheritage.net Undercover Radio - The Fifties On Air A young man growing up in Missouri, another growing up in Virginia and yet another in far away New Zealand. They were all drawn together by one common love and exploring a world far beyond their local towns. In 'Undercover Radio' the new Popular Culture feature of the Radio Heritage Foundation at www.radioheritage.net you'll be drawn into their world from The Fifties. Bob Dylan, Bill Hester and Keith Robinson lived thousands of miles apart, but were connected through the airwaves to the same radio stations, the same DJs and the same music at the same time. With extracts from memoirs and colorfully illustrated with popular magazines of the time, personal letters from the DJs at radio stations and beautiful artwork of station logos and much more, Bill Hester's 'coming of age' story comes alive for new generations who enjoy the music of Bob Dylan. Releasing the new feature at www.radioheritage.net, the Radio Heritage Foundation says 'This story captures a moment in time when musical influences from all over could beam into one tiny transistor radio held under the bedsheets and have a profound influence on the development of popular music as we know it today'. 'It nicely ties together our long held belief that radio heritage is more than just dusty old cards, letters and photos, fading memories and scratchy records - and connects not only people and places, but the popular culture of a significant era in time'. >From WOR New York, KYW Philadelphia, WSB Atlanta, WBAL Baltimore, and many hundreds more stations across the eastern seaboard and mid-west of the USA, the sounds of The Fifties swept across the nation and across the world. 'Undercover Radio' at www.radioheritage.net is entertaining, informative and when you listen to Bob Dylan's music from now on, you'll always hear the echoes of those magical radio airwaves and the music, ideas and influences that crossed so many borders. The Radio Heritage Foundation is a registered non-profit organization connecting popular culture, nostalgia and radio heritage across the Pacific.
