[IRCA] Discussion of Daily Solar Space and Geomagnetic Weather Conditions
DISCUSSION OF DAILY SOLAR SPACE AND GEOMAGNETIC WEATHER- For Sunday February 10, 2013 Solar activity is high as far as the emergence of the number of new sunspot groups. Currently there are 8 new un-numbered sunspot groups and 3 existing numbered sunspot groups. Solar activity is low as far as the number of new solar flares, 1 occurred. The largest solar flare in magnitude was a very small in size B2.7, associated with sunspot group #11670, located at approximately N17W05. The daily solar flux index (SFI) has been above 100 for 11 consecutive days, currently at 105.9. The daily sunspot number (SSN) has languished below 100 for 26 consecutive days, currently (NOAA) at 45. The geomagnetic field has been quiet for 3 consecutive days with the Kp (planetary) index in the 0-2 range. As collected by Potsdam Germany WDC the 3 hour Kp (planetary) intervals are 21110111. As collected by NOAA/SWPC the 3 hour Kp (planetary) intervals are 0011. The Dst ranged between +13 and -16. On the Kyoto web page the last 5 hours of data was missing but I think that the available data is representative of the day.

[IRCA] Tom Ray Leaving WOR
All Access reports that Tom Ray is leaving WOR, where he's been chief engineer for more than 15 years. He'll be running a consulting business. I suppose the writing was on the wall after Clear Channel purchased the station. He was certainly a staunch IBOC defender in its early days, although he's seemed less optimistic about its viability in recent years. -- Rick ___ 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] Tom Ray Leaving WOR
I'm sorry to hear that Tom Ray is leaving WOR. Although I disagreed with his feeling about iBOC, I know he was a good chief engineer. I wonder if Clear Channel will bring in a contract person.

Re: [IRCA] Tom Ray Leaving WOR
Last Friday Tom Ray put out a press release saying he resigned from Clear Channel and WOR to start his own consulting business. In todays Northeast Radio Watch Scott Fybush says: ** Begin Quote ** NEW YORK coverage begins in lower Manhattan, where one of the city's longest-serving broadcast engineers has parted way with the station he completely rebuilt last decade. Tom Ray's time at WOR (710) lasted just over 15 years, and what a decade and a half it was: he oversaw the station's move from its (very) longtime 1440 Broadway address downtown to the financial district, shepherded its New Jersey transmitter relocation through a veritable swamp of political and physical obstacles, and made himself a national lightning rod with his vocal initial support for HD Radio on AM.(Tom literally wrote the book on the topic, in fact.) Ray had been serving as national director of engineering when Buckley Broadcasting sold WOR to Clear Channel last year, and he gave up the remaining Buckley stations to stay with WOR. Now he's stepping down from that post to launch his own independent consultancy, Tom Ray Broadcast Consulting, with another big announcement coming tomorrow. ** End Quote ** ** Your Message ** All Access reports that Tom Ray is leaving WOR, where he's been chief engineer for more than 15 years.

Low band big guns were at reasonable strength after 1400UT, and not much had changed after 1500UT, but sticking around paid a dividend or two, as things popped into life just before 1510UT to be crushed pretty much by the local noise popping into life at 1520UT. Perhaps things were starting to fade anyway. except that JOUB banged in with its biggest signal at 1524UT for a short time. pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least briefly): 774 JOUB woman in JJ, then another in EE OK...and then? reasonable audio at times during the period (much of it understandable by a native speaker, though often battling w/splash or noise): 594 JOAK man in JJ 1424UT 828 JOBB EE lessons 1419UT //774, 747.
