[IRCA] TP 22 Feb Victoria version.

2019-02-22 Thread Nick Hall-Patch
A bit livelier again today, mostly Asian, and "usual stuff";  high band peak 
shortly before local sunrise.


pretty darn good audio (all of it understandable by a native speaker, at least 
briefly):

almost



Reasonable audio at  times during the period (much of it understandable by a 
native speaker, though often battling with splash or noise):

774 JOUB 1436UT

972 HLCA  1440UT 





not so reasonable audio, occasional words or phrases in splash or noise could 
be understood by a native speaker: 

1017 Tonga assumed with male choral vocal with guitar 1444UT




Burbles in the splatter and noise (if lucky, language might be guessed at by 
cadence of talk, or parallel established by changes in talk or music) 


603 HLSA faint music, woman talking //558 on S. Korean KiwiSDR 1454UT

702 man and woman DU English intonation 1435UT

 747 JOIB //774 1431UT

1557 man talking, Chinese intonation 1503UT; clean carrier today

1566 woman talking, maybe Chinese 1501UT; hum on channel with sidebands on 31 
and 62 Hz; not seen on Korean KiwiSDR.

1593 CNR1 woman //6175 at 1459UT; pips at 1500UT


Strongish het, no or "near imaginary" audio (either undermodulated or ravaged 
by splatter)

 828 864 945 seemed to be Asian; 
  612 657 738 756  891  1098 seemed to be DU  


best wishes,

Nick

[IRCA] 1430 WION DX test

2019-02-22 Thread Forrester S
This from Greg Buchwald via FB

Traveling to WION, Ionia, MI tomorrow to do a bunch of PM. After midnight
EST (early Sunday morning), we will be doing testing at full power, omni.
Work includes IPM reduction and sweeping each tower so that I can complete
the design and construction of a non-resonant power divider. The current
resonant tank circuit divider exhibits 4dB of sideband tilt that I
currently correct using the cquam exciter. That is, of course, not ideal
and we'll be broadbanding that array. WION 1430kHz. We will complete the
work with a few highly separated musical selections. DX reports appreciated!
