Bruce,

Maybe CKWX should look at another frequency, maybe the old 600?
Especialy if they could get 50 KW. Unless Mt. Angel drastically changes
its' pattern or lowers power, it looks like CKWX will have to deal with
the QRM. Of course a booster station or a translator on FM in the
Frasier Valley may work. If CKWX has an FM, they could similcast in the
mornings and afternoons. Of course combatting the U.S. QRM, maybe higher
power might be allowed, but I believe Canada also has the 50 KW limit.

and mentioned Alton, North Alton, 618 area codes and lots of Riverbend

I assume that KPWX's tx is south of Portland and that they want to reach 
Portland's Mexican community so I don't think changing patterns is going to 
happen, however, what CKWX should be pressing for is for somewhat lower CH 
power for KPWX. This morning and afternoon QRM is only going to get worse as 
fall continues and northern areas start to develop skip a couple hours before 
SS and after SR.

[IRCA] MW DX from Enid OK, October 2-4, 2010

2010-10-04 Thread Glenn Hauser
** ALASKA. I was going to put this under UNIDENTIFIED, until researched: 2750, 
Oct 4 at 1214, strong signal and still but weaker at 1242 recheck: sweep and 
step tones, like you might hear from a MW station doing a proof; same thing 
over and over, from low to high pitches. What`s this? Previously as in DXLD 
10-16:

``UNIDENTIFIED. 2750, 8 tones, each at increasingly higher pitches, 
followed by ambulance siren like sound, then repeat. Heard 0930,and 
rechecks 0940, 1000. Wanted to monitor, but found it too creepy and 
irritating to do so. Sounded similar to testing tones used by phone 
co. in the 60's. Very odd. Have heard before, usually in the dead of 
night. I believe Glenn Hauser has reported some strange stuff on this 
freq. also, but a different pattern. 4/14, 73 and Good Listening !
(Rick Barton, Phoenix, Arizona, (at the Sun City Shack), Hammarlund 
HQ-180A, 70' l.w. strung out to Saguaro in backyard, ABDX via DXLD)``

See also DXLD 8-129, under ALASKA for HAARP reports on this frequency (mention 
of N Korea there erroneous as that was and is on 2850)
http://www.w4uvh.net/dxld8129.txt

UDXF posts of Dec 11, 2008 must have been the same thing, when tests from HAARP 
had been publicized:

``At 0615 utc they seem to be on 2750 with a wide signal taking up almost 100 
khz with multiple swept frequencies making a nice pattern on the Perseus 
screen. Don VE6JY [Moman] near Edmonton Alberta.``

``Concur: 0630Z up to S8 on 2750 (and wider). Classic HAARP rising tones. I'm 
south of Vancouver, and north of Seattle. Brendan WA7HL [Wahl] Bellingham 
Wash.``

I thought what I was hearing today after sunrise, would unlikely be all the way 
from Alaska with such a good signal, especially if it`s aimed straight up; 
altho 2850 KCBS was also audible, and, guess what, the great circle path from 
Korea North passes right over Alaska, very close to Gakona! So presumably from 
the above it really was HAARP. However, it was certainly not taking up 100 kHz, 
just normal bandwidth (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA NORTH. 2850, KCBS with soprano praising Kim (what else?), Oct 2 at 
1242, S9+15; the radio war with het on 3480 also audible (Glenn Hauser, OK, DX 
LISTENING DIGEST)

** KOREA NORTH. 2850, Oct 4 at 1242, KCBS with harmonious vocal music, from the 
workers` paradise, now registering S9+15, better than it was a semihour earlier 
(Glenn Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. 740, KRMG Tulsa used to carry Dr Dean Edell, one of few nationally 
syndicated commercial talk shows worth listening to, Saturday and Sunday 
afternoons, but now it`s something else, Oct 3 at 2140 UT. 

They still have some other non-rightwingnut shows. Weekend program schedule is 
here: http://krmg.com/inside/krmgprogrambyhour.html
but I can`t find a full weekday schedule. They used to run Jim Bohannon replays 
after local midnight, but can`t confirm that by looking at the website (Glenn 
Hauser, Enid, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** OKLAHOMA. On an expedition a few miles north of Enid, just beyond the Grand 
National Gun Club firing range, to release a trapped squirrel banned from our 
pecan trees, hoping he can still find his mate trapped and released there last 
week, and not be killed by trigger-happy gun nuts after all our trouble, I took 
the opportunity to do a MW bandscan, altho I did not drive far enough down a 
dirt road to escape all the line noise. 

Notable was a big roar on 1610, as heard recently even dentro-Enid, presumably 
the Great Salt Plains State Park TIS which used to relay Enid NWS, now totally 
out of whack, but I am sure they have not even noticed it at park HQ.

1430, the frequency occupied by two Oklahomans, KALV Alva, but with a null 
toward KTBZ Tulsa and also Enid, at 2155 Oct 3 nevertheless had KALV 
dominating, with Beatles`` ``Gimme Rock `n` Roll Music``. As I tuned on up, 
found // music on 1450, i.e. KGFF Shawnee, as both of them have oldies format 
while both frequency-competitors, 1450 being KSIW Woodward, are sportive (Glenn 
Hauser, OK, DX LISTENING DIGEST)

** U S A. 690, KGGF Coffeyville KS, Sunday Oct 3 at 2120 UT, audio cuts on and 
off a few times per second; impossible to tell what`s going on. At 2150 check, 
I caught the word ``Braves``, so seems to be about baseball. 

Totally unlistenable and no one is minding the store. This is the same station 
that I also caught this summer during an entire baseball game with open carrier 
except for local commercial breaks! 

This was on my expedition north of Enid; see OKLAHOMA. At the early hour of 
2140 UT Oct 3, KXTR-1660 Kansas City was audible with opera; 1680 had a fast 
SAH between two very weak X-banders; traces of something on 600, CO or IA; 840 
CW music from NE; 870 Spanish from KFJZ, Metroplex but also a SAH, could it be 
WWL far beyond? Or low-powers in NE CO, NW MO.

1090, Oct 3 at 2152 UT, prayer with same refrain every few sex by another 
voice, ``We beseech you, hear us``. The fourth word was hard to understand; at 

Re: [IRCA] Re 1130 BC OR

2010-10-04 Thread Patrick Martin
True, but there are International laws regarding QRM and since CKWX has
been on 1130 forever, Mt. Angel may be forced to make changes. Mt. Angel
is indeed South of Portland, but Bustos Media already has several
stations in the Portland area.  They have 1010, 1150, 1230, and 1520.

[IRCA] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 10-4

2010-10-04 Thread D1028Gary
Hello All,
 
 This morning's Asian propagation seemed down  somewhat in comparison 
to previous days, and Dennis' high band boost was not  noticed here. (There 
is some evidence that the 9' box loop here performs best on  the low band 
frequencies, in comparison to single-loop directional antennas).  There were 
good low-band signals from regulars like 648-VOR and  657-Pyongyang and some 
decent Chinese signals on 936 and 1035 kHz  at times, but it wasn't exactly a 
thrilling session. Trying to  identify a weak co-channel that showed up 
again under 639-CNR1 proved  fruitless, with CNR1 itself in and out. 1053 and 
1134 kHz seemed  down in strength compared to their usual levels, and 1170 
kHz didn't  have the usual TP's (KBS or an UnID Chinese station) pestering  
KPUG.
 Perhaps the brightest sign was the very low band,  where 558-HLQH made 
its first appearance (// 603-HLSA) with its standard  KBS2 Korean pop music 
format. The Chinese CRI station on 1044 kHz was  also vibrant with its 
Japanese-language program, but other than that and  some momentary Chinese 
fade-ins on 918 and 927 kHz, it was a fairly modest  TP-DXing morning here.
 
 The following were heard on a C.Crane SWP Slider  model (7.5 
loopstick) inductively coupled to a 9' sided PVC tuned passive loop  (in the 
back 
yard). A modified ICF-2010 (with a 30 transplanted loopstick) was  used as an 
SSB spotting receiver:
 
558  HLQH  Daegu, S. Korea  Fair with Korean music at  1351 // 603

594  JOAK  Tokyo, Japan  Good Japanese talk program around  1340
603  HLSA  Namyang, S. Korea Fair-good Korean pop music at  1351;
 trace of UnID Chinese  co-channel underneath
639  CNR1  China Synchros  Modest Chinese signal  around 1406; an
 apparent weak  co-channel in and out on the frequency but way 
 too weak to check NHK1  //

[IRCA] CHSC-1220 - Gone for good

2010-10-04 Thread Niel Wolfish
Today's St. Catharines Standard reports that 1220-CHSC is now officially off 
the air for good.  

The CRTC had denied an application to renew the broadcasting licence of CHSC, 
and they were supposed to be off the air at the end of August.  Their owner, 
Pellpropco,  obtained an interim injunction to stay on the air while the 
Federal Court of Appeal considered the owner's appeal of the CRTC decision.  
Apparently the Federal Court of Appeal has now denied the appearl.

Re: [IRCA] 540 in MN

2010-10-04 Thread John Sampson
I heard them briefly testing in mid-Sept. with while driving to the TCs but 
nothing else until today.  Noted this afternoon in Grand Rapids with an ok 
signal on the 200' long wire that favors the south; will have to turn off most 
of the noise makers (wireless modem, printer, phone, computer, etc.) to see 
what kind of daytime signal they actually put in here.  The QTH is Sauk Rapids, 
in practice, they serve the St. Cloud area although I do have to wonder how 
much useful night time coverage they actually have.  Their theoretical pattern 
is in the FCC web site; don't know how accurate that really  is tho.

noted, Russian LWBC was very poor at 1400 but 4 stations in at 1300Z. 
The following were heard in audio from a 2-minute Perseus capture at 
1259-1301Z, and 
a 3 minute Perseus file at 1358-1401Z TOH. All loggings above 234 KHz were the 
1400Z session..

Fair to good with decent non-fading audio:

234  R. Rossii  Arman (Russia) 1300Z, gone by 1400Z
279  R. Rossii Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk (Russia)
558  HLQH Daegu presumed (S. Korea). Not the JA this morning. YL sang through 
TOH. 
585  JOPG Kushiro (Japan)
594  JOAK Tokyo (Japan)
603  HLSA (S. Korea) dominant and loud
603  5 KW NHK1 synchros (2 stations) in under HLSA, // 594
639  JOIP Oita 5 KW in at 1401Z // 594. No other station noted here today
650 KENI Anchorage in at good strength, mentions of website just prior to TOH
684 UNID, Not //594, sounded CC
693  JOAB NHK2 Tokyo (Japan)
738  BEL2 back in (Taiwan). Something else underneath.
747  JOUB  NHK2 Sapporo (Japan)
774  JOIB Akita NHK2 (Japan)
828  JOBB Osaka NHK-2 (Japan)
890  KBBI Homer AK with TOH ID

1314 JOUF OBC Osaka (First time logged here) JJ commercials to TOH
1566 HLAZ (S. Korea)

Re: [IRCA] 540 in MN

This explains why I struck out bigtime here trying to get them via SSS in late 
Sept. The logging a saw of them with classic rock and ID's from mid Sept 
must've not been RS.  73 KAZ now needing 4 stations to complete MN from IL.

I heard them briefly testing in mid-Sept. with while driving to the TCs but 
nothing else until today.  Noted this afternoon in Grand Rapids with an ok 
signal on the 200' long wire that favors the south; will have to turn off most 
of the noise makers (wireless modem, printer, phone, computer, etc.) to see 
what kind of daytime signal they actually put in here.  The QTH is Sauk 
Rapids, in practice, they serve the St. Cloud area although I do have to 
wonder how much useful night time coverage they actually have.  Their 
theoretical pattern is in the FCC web site; don't know how accurate that 
really  is tho.

What kind of a signal do they have in Woodbury? - John S.
