 A real mess on 1590, with WASB causing havoc at 1589.9, and WAKR the other
 station.  At 0111 EDT I heard polka accordion music, which doesn't fit WASB
 or WAKR.  Anyone else hear the accordion?

Pretty poor conditions. Just these 3 DUs produced audio, around local
sunrise.

1116 had good audio

774 fair

702 poor.

No Europeans the night before, except Iceland on 189 and someone on 171

[IRCA] Couple of DUs from Manitoba Oct 4

2011-10-04 Thread Barry Wasylik
Oct 4/2011


First was 1116 at 12.10 GMT (local sunrise 12:31) with weak audio that
became stronger by 12:25 - EE with Australian accent.

774 also produced EE with Australian accent at 12:18 GMT
 738 had weak audio, I think French, but couldn't be positive.

Previous night didn't produce any Europeans (unless you want to count
Iceland presumed on 189)

[IRCA] NO TA in Manitoba Monday evening Nov 8

2010-11-08 Thread Barry Wasylik
No luck here again.

A little bit of long wave - 189 was good, 153 fair,  162 weak.

At 00:42 GMT weak hets on 783  873 but so weak we gave up and went home.

60 mile or so drive each way so was hoping for more,
but did get to see 5 bald eagles on the way out
and 3 deer on the way home (not counting the carcass of one that poachers
had butchered on our driveway to our DX location -  idiots with high power
rifles make one a little leery or staying
overnight to tune - especially when conditions are so bad.)
One of the deer a nice buck on the way back stayed right in front of me on
the highway as I came to a stop about 10 feet from it, then waited and
slowly walked off into the bush.

[IRCA] Poor TA conditions in Manitoba Thursday night

2010-10-14 Thread Barry Wasylik
Went to our DX location 60 miles east of Winnipeg tonight.

Basically nothing in the way of TA.
hets on 1548, 1557, 1575, 747
weak audio on 783 for a short period of time.

Even longwave was poor with weak audio on 153, 162, 171 and I think 198.

Didn't tempt me to stay overnight to try for TPs  DUs in the AM.

Seems to be the story of the year the 4 times I've gone out to tune.

[IRCA] Poor TA/TP conditions in Manitoba

2010-09-16 Thread Barry Wasylik
DXing last night/this morning (Sept 15/16)  50 miles East on Winnipeg, MB
using beverages and NRD-535D

No TAs - a few very weak hets  - 783  747  774  855

In the morning around sunrise conditions also poor -
some hets but little audio.

738 - was in at times with decent audio that you could tell was French and
understand a few words.

Just before sunrise (11:52 GMT) some audio on 774 765 and 1116 but not even
strong enough to tell what language
atho based on time and direction of antenna I'm pretty sure they were DU.

Re: [IRCA] Alaska on 529

2009-10-27 Thread Barry Wasylik
I heard this on Oct 19  around local sunrise in southern Manitoba - using a
2,000 foot beverage pointed at Alaska.  First time that I know of.

Nothing was coming in from Japan or Australia that morning so I tried for
Alaska without any success (never heard Alaska)
For some reason I decided to listen to the weather info coming in on 529, my
ears perked up when I thought I heard weather alerts for central Alaska.
Later listening to my recording, I also heard weather info for Juneau, so
also think it must be Level Island.  400 watts I believe.
I have no idea why it was getting this far out.
Unfortunately I wouldn't count this as hearing Alaska on MW - only a
broadcast station would do it for me.

Barry WasyikNRD 535D + 6 beverage antennas




Had an interesting station on 529 when I went to check 531 - one of
the transcribed
weather broadcasts (TWB) from Alaska. Per the Hepburn site this could
have been
FDV / KBN 58 Nome or SQM / KQA 59 Level Island - I suspect the latter
as it is much
closer. Anyone else log those?

[IRCA] Strange TP/TA conditions in Manitoba

Saturday night/Sunday AM.

100821:55   Spanish, sounded like play by play.  assume Spain. New

Sunday AM
693   13:48   Japan  // 774  English  JJ so assume language lessons.

I say strange conditions in that both these are new stations but 
almost nothing else on the MW band. in terms of TA/TPs. Next to 
nothing else even in the way of hets.

No DUs.

Morocco booming in on 171 all evening.
