WHLY was dominant from 2250 on, but the oldies I was hearing I assumed was CKDO. It's OK, I was spending more time tracking new Canadian DTV signals.

[IRCA] NE Oregon TPs, Thursday
A new month. LWBC better this morning. Added 171 for Radio Rossii, six freqs today (189 at S9 level); and 209 Mongolia with poor audio briefly at 1202 utc. 164 still just a good het, no audio yet this season. At the end, MW TP all Down Under but some high-band, very unusual for me mostly due to heavy domestic splatter. 1548 With DU talk rising to weak for a few seconds at 1328 utc. 738,792,891,1116 all DU, 891 the best but all fading away early today, about 1335 utc. ___ 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] Alberta TA traces
Inspired by Nick's recent reports I thought I'd check for TA carriers tonight, and indeed have found quite a few. None are threatening to turn into audio, but 1215 and 1377 have been very noticeable carriers. A quick scan just now (0400 UTC) also showed weaker ones on 693, 855,864,909,927,0144,1107,1116,1206, and 1422. 73, Nigel Pimblett Dunmore, Alberta ___ 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] Alberta TPs for 1 Sep 2011
Some promising early-season reception this morning. First audio of the season on 1566 from Korea, and also traces from the off-freq Chinese on 1206. Add audio from Japan on 774 and Australia on 1116, and that made for the most TP/DU audio observed thus far. This was all in the 1200-1215 time frame. 73, Nigel Pimblett Dunmore, Alberta ___ 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] Alberta TA traces; BC too
A quick check at 0435UT here yielded the strongest 1215 carrier heard yet, in fact I thought there should have been audio, but not while I listened. 1053 was the next strongest, and the rest were quite weak: 783, 855, 864, 909, 927, 1008, 1107, 1116, 1206 and 1377. Unfortunately, I had a couple of other things on the go around the house, and by 0450UT recheck, things had faded quite a lot. Maybe starting to listen at local sunset tomorrow would be a good idea if conditions hold up. best wishes, Nick At 04:15 02-09-11, you wrote: Inspired by Nick's recent reports I thought I'd check for TA carriers tonight, and indeed have found quite a few.
