Re: [IRCA] Re 1130 BC OR
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. 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

I poked around a bit on Saturday morning with the barefoot Eton e-100. Only station of note was new to the main and ULR logs.

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.

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

Re: [IRCA] 540 in MN
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. http://www.fcc.gov/fcc-bin/amq?list=0facid=161448 What kind of a signal do they have in Woodbury? - John S.

Jim, I trust that the new NE flag is clearly the best antenna for most of this?

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. -Original Message- From: John Sampson jnsamp...@earthlink.net Sent: Oct 4, 2010 7:16 PM To: Mailing list for the International Radio Club of America irca@hard-core-dx.com Subject: Re: [IRCA] 540 in MN 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. http://www.fcc.gov/fcc-bin/amq?list=0facid=161448 What kind of a signal do they have in Woodbury? - John S.
