Colin, that would be interesting.  According to the October PAL, V6AK may be
possibly silent.  They've been heard often in the past, but not sure more
recently.  Another alternative would also be Radio Samoa from Auckland, but
don't know whether they're in darkness yet...Walt

[IRCA] hot times on the upper band right now

2011-01-25 Thread Nick Hall-Patch
additional stuff...but it's fading fast now...603 w/talk, poor; only 
other low band was 774 w/ s/off chimes.  1332 had fair to good JJ 
talk, 1467 murky talk, 1494 murky mx, 1503 poor to fair w/JJ talk, 
1521 caught the final few notes of NHK2 chimes mixing with mx from 
who knows where, 1575 of course, in addition to those caught 
earlier.  Obviously should have paid attention a bit earlier this morning.

[IRCA] ULR DX.........Nothing New @ SUNSET.....But a UNID on 1520 ...Any Ideas?????

2011-01-25 Thread Robert S.Ross VA3SW

Hi Guys:

  The band was pretty useless tonight at SUNSET and I was almost ready 
to give up and go for supper when I found something interesting on 1520 
Khz. In WWKB, Buffalo's , Null,  I was hearing a Station oriented south 
playing Urban Contemporary/RB Music. Then it appeared to be playing 
Black Gospel Music. However at times I was hearing BOTH RB and 
GOSPEL.so it was obviously 2 Stations swapping out...Both from 
the south. At Times WWKB took them both out, at other times each took a 
turn at being on top.


The RB Station I think may be WARR Warrenton, NC with 5 KW Days with 
Critical Hours authorization of 1 KW.  That would be a RELOG for me...


The Black Gospel I think is most likely WINW Canton, OHIO with 1 KW 
Days..That would be NEW if them!!!


No ID heard on the hour and both stations seemed to continue on after 
1800 EST


This will need more work ...Maybe if I try there later this week at 
Sunset I can squeeze and ID outta them???


RADIO USED.SONY SRF-T615 ULR Barefoot


ULR LOG TOTALS are now...886 Stations Heard

Robert S. Ross
London, Ontario CANADA

**
1520 UNID 2 Stations Oriented SOUTH   Jan/25/11 1735-1800 + ESTEE 
   FAIR
2 Stations mixing it up in WWKB's Null. One with Urban Contemporary RB 
Music and the
other with Black Gospel.  At 1748 EST a Female said something that 
sounded like

Music Cash in a Flash???. Don't know if that means anything to anyone???
Both stations seemed to carry on after 1800 EST. Canton WINW should have 
gone off the air

by then I figure?? WARR has Critical hours Authorization.

Not sure who was who here...but I do need WINW for a NEW STATION...so 
will have to keep on

this one later in the week!!

UNID   NO IDEA!!!
ROSS, ONT.

I was up at 5:45AM Kona time.

Simply not the case here --

Lots of hets and weak audio --
nothing standing out as in earlier sessions this month.

Fascinating.

From The Media Network Blog:

An excerpt from the blog:

Radio Netherlands Worldwide has made the decision to close its Bonaire
shortwave station in October 2012.

and

We anticipate that by the end of 2012, the number of hours will be so small
that it would be too costly to maintain the station

Hmmm, wasn't the case here in southern Alberta either.  The lower band 
Japanese were better than they've been for several days, but nothing 
exciting on the upper part of the dial.  Must have been a Victoria 
phenomenon!
