Re: [IRCA] coastal TAs...
For once I have to agree with Nigel. 1521 was in here several times many years ago, but these days I condider myself lucky if I see a carrier. But then conditions can vary a great deal between here and the southern part of the province, for example: last night Nigel had TAs across the band whereas I had one faint lonely carrier on 162.

[IRCA] Verification Signers column tips
Just a reminder to IRCA members that your tips for my monthly Verification Signers column are always welcome. Please send them to the e-mail address in this message. There were no columns for July or August because no tips were submitted, but I am hoping that with the approach of the DX season, several of you will be sending reception reports to some of the stations you log.

Re: [IRCA] Verification Signers column tips
Steve - I wonder if you could share your last few months of tips with Brandon Jordan who is now the IRCA/NRC DX Test coordinator? Might help with setting up some tests this winter. Thanks.

[IRCA] Alberta TPs for 26 August 2014
A bit of an odd morning, with lots of carriers, seemingly from both TP and DU, but very little audio. 702 ABC Sydney Talk by a woman at 1207. Strong carrier for the whole session, but only a few minutes of audio. 774 JOUB, Japan traces at 1152, and never got better than a word here and there. 828 JOBB, Japan very weak Japanese at 1154, about the same situation as 774 855 unID Just traces of audio. Not sure if it was TP or DU 972 HLCA, Korea Weak, with talk by a man at 1151. 1116 4BC, Brisbane Traces of presumed 4BC at 1209. 1557 unID decent carrier, but only managed bare traces of audio at 1202 for a minute or so. 1566 HLAZ Korea Again the best TP of the morning. Mostly poor, but with a brief spike up to good at 1212. Like yesterday, the two Koreans were better than the Japanese. 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
