[IRCA] TP 11 Mar; Victoria version
Another dreadful morning, unless you wanted to listen to Thailand on 1575, in which case, it was a wonderful morning, with strong steady signal from 1350 to after 1430UT even keeping pace with the local intermittent electrical noise, with a nice fat VoA EE ID at 1430UT announcing Burmese to follow. Otherwise, snatches of audio on 774 and 1566 rounded things out anemically. I can't see how present geomagnetic conditions would cause this sort of reception. Just put my good Flag antenna back up too. best wishes, Nick ___ 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] Puyallup, WA Ultralight TP's for 3-11
Hello All, Nick wasn't the only one who noticed the unusual signal from 1575-VOA this morning. While almost all of the other Asians stayed down in the noise, Thailand had one of its best signals of the entire long-running DX season, peaking around 1407 with its typical male-female Asiatic language news. While 1575-VOA was pounding in the other TP's sounded comatose, with only 1566-HLAZ managing poor audio in and out around 1410. 1575-VOA is apparently getting some type of weird propagation boost recently, possibly related to the upcoming spring equinox. 1575 VOA Ban Rassom, Thailand Very good Asiatic language news in and out at 1404; its best signal yet for 2013 here http://www.mediafire.com/?kixzlh2c1c41yj7 73 and Good DX, Gary DeBock (in Puyallup, WA, USA) C.Crane SWP 7.5 Slider loopstick Ultralight + 8 Medium Wave FSL antenna (DXing indoors) ___ 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] Comments Eric Rhoads' blog about car radios: the sky ISN'T (necessarily) falling
Since my forwarding of Rhoads' Radio Ink article caused a lot of response on these lists, here are some responses refuting Rhoads' suppositions about the impending disappearance of AM FM radios in cars... Kinsey Wilson of NPR sent out an email to its station reps: I wanted to respond briefly to the concerns raised on this list by Eric Rhoads’ blog post (below). The suggestion that automakers are preparing to simply eliminate AM/FM radio from the dash in the next five years is frankly at odds with anything we’ve heard in our dealings with more than a dozen manufacturers over the past three years. When I saw Chuck Miller’s post, I reached out to Don Grage, who manages NPR’s “connected car” initiatives and is in daily contact with the car companies; and I exchanged e-mail with Fred Jacobs, who was on the panel that provided the fodder for Rhoads’ post. Fred said the claim was made a Gartner analyst at the very end of the session and that he offered little support for his contention. (You can see Fred’s response to the controversy in a post he published this morning under the title “Why the Sky Isn’t Falling.”) Our take: We are not aware of any move to eliminate AM/FM reception from the automobiles. At the same time, it’s clear that automakers are incorporating a variety of entertainment alternatives in the dash and that the “center stack” is undergoing the same kind technological transformation that were seeing on other platforms. While we don’t expect radio to be eliminated, it’s quite possible that the simplicity of AM/FM channel selection will suffer as more options become available. That’s why we’ve been working to ensure that NPR and local public radio content has a prominent, branded presence in the cars of the future and that our programming is not lost amid the clutter or rolled up by aggregators. We’ll continue to provide details of these efforts as they move forward and hope in the meantime we can help keep things in perspective. General Motors' Chief Infotainment Officer (whatever that is!) sent out this email: General Motors Will Not Abandon Radio The recent editorial by Radio Ink Publisher Eric Rhoads A Cold Harsh Reality for Radio, quoting panelists at Convergence 2013 in Santa Clara, has amplified the discussion about the role of AM/FM in future automobile dashboards. Eric's piece has generated pages of feedback from the radio industry and has been shared, liked, and tweeted more than any Radio Ink piece in years. The article prompted this response from General Motors Chief Infotainment Officer Phil Abram: Dear Mr. Rhoads: Your March 8 article A Cold, Harsh Reality For Radio came as a surprise to me and the Global Connected Consumer team at General Motors. We are responsible for setting the strategy for infotainment systems across GM. While we are excited about the possibilities of Internet radio services and other emerging services, we understand that AM/FM radio is still a significant source of news and entertainment. In fact, it is an expected feature. We can’t speak for other automakers, but to be clear, GM has no near term plans to eliminate AM and FM from GM vehicles. We are committed to providing consumers innovative services that dramatically enhance the driving and riding experience. We expect AM/FM radio to be one of the choices consumers have in our vehicles. We know consumers want to be safely connected in their cars, and we’re enabling it with world-class infotainment platforms, telematics systems and safety services. I invite you to visit our facilities to check out our latest developments. Sincerely, Phil Abram, Chief Infotainment Officer General Motors And Jacobs Media's JacoBlog (Fred Jacobs) says simply, The sky isn't falling. http://jacobsmediablog.com/2013/03/11/the-sky-isnt-falling/ Randy Stewart Springfield MO ___ 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] Teens may NOT be abandoning radio...
Inside Radio ran an article today, Teens Driving Radio’s Growth (!)... I don't have a full subscription, I just get headlines, but if you want to check it out it's at http://www.insideradio.com/ Large gains among Hispanics, Blacks and teens pushed radio’s national weekly audience to 242.8 million, according to Arbitron’s March RADAR 116 National Radio Listening Report, for a year-over-year increase of 1.6 million. Among major age demos, teens show the largest gains, growing to nearly 23 million, while 18-34s held steady at 66.5 million.
