Re: [IRCA] India on Ultralight Radio
Hi Everyone, Regarding the recent mentions of logging India on an Ultralight Radio As Jim Renfrew mentions, From Signal Hill,Newfoundland this past fall, I heard what sounded like Indian type music only for a short period of time with no chance at hearing anything further such as ID or talk, as the signal diminished quickly thereafter, At this point I cannot say with certainty that it truly was the India signal on 1566.

Several Midwestern DXD'ers have speculated on that. KOLM was totally absent Friday night, but evident 0158-0207 and 0258-0307, mixing with KB and KRHW.

Re: [IRCA] India on Ultralight Radio
Hi Allen, Sorry for the confusion. I found out about Chuck's 1566-India logging (in November of 2008 on an SRF-T615) from Guy Atkins, and Chuck has been very modest about sharing the details. India is prime target for Grayland, WA DXers, who seem to have a fascination with it. Since you are the official records keeper for the Ultralightdx Yahoo group, Allen, and we haven't yet heard of an official First India logging, I thought that Chuck's reception was the only one. Good luck in tracking it down again, for an official logging. 73, Gary -Original Message- From: Allen Willie vo1_001_...@yahoo.ca To: irca irca@hard-core-dx.com Sent: Sun, Feb 13, 2011 6:22 am Subject: Re: [IRCA] India on Ultralight Radio Hi Everyone, Regarding the recent mentions of logging India on an Ultralight Radio As Jim Renfrew mentions, From Signal Hill,Newfoundland this past fall, I heard what sounded like Indian type music only for a short period of time with no chance at hearing anything further such as ID or talk, as the signal diminished quickly thereafter, At this point I cannot say with certainty that it truly was the India signal on 1566.

On Friday 11 Feb at 1851 EST, on 940, after national ads, a female announcer said: Thank you for listening to the Jason Lewis Show and indicated the program will resume in a set number of minutes. This continued for over an hour, with Lewis actually appearing at various intervals and doing his show. The only station listed at Lewis' web site www.jasonlewisshow.com is WCSW Shell Lake WI, and my longwire is aimed west. Perhaps WCSW was running unattended. Anyhow, if you need the station, listen to the clips and then try 940 when the show is on. Maybe this is an ongoing problem at the station. The music stands out, even if it is a bit on the soft side.

At 2014 EST on Feb 4, I logged WMSP with ESPN on 740, so that could be what you heard. I don't think they'd make it here on their night power, so it could also indicate that they had the day power on late, at least on this occasion.

This was all quite clear and I didn't have the recorder running. Probably the same station...and your WSBE was almost certainly WNGZ or simply Wingz, one of several sister stations in the Elmira-based cluster with WRCE. WRCE itself is a throwaway station in that cluster. It's mainly used to simulcast other stations in the cluster, usually Piggie 100.9 WPGI Horseheads, but sometimes WNGZ 104.9 Montour Falls or WWLZ 820 Horseheads. WRCE breaks away from simulcast mode occasionally on weekends to carry auto racing, either NASCAR coverage or a simulcast of the track announcements from the Watkins Glen International raceway. When they're carrying racing from the Glen, there are often long periods of dead air or wild sound of cars on the track. I go to the Glen a few times a year with my dad, who's been going there since they were racing in the streets in the early fifties, and it's always interesting to play the what's on WRCE today? game... s ___ 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
