Re: [IRCA] KNZR 1560 Thanksgiving stunting

[Joseph Miller]

Thanks Mike.  KNZR is the usual occupancy here on 1560, but tonight I am
hearing two stations and it it's hard to copy either.

P.S. I remember when 1560 was WQXR New York City and they played classical
music. Ok, I am dating myself...

Awesome, even my daughter is excited. Hope to make it on one of our weekend
trips to LA.

Maybe they will have some memorabilia from Good Morning Vietnam or
Frequency or you get the idea.

Thank for sharing.

[IRCA] From the ARRL Letter

[Joseph Miller]

*Technology:* FCC Asked to Allow All Digital Transmissions on AM Band

According to *Radio World*
,
a prominent advocate for the Standard Broadcast Band (AM band) has
petitioned the FCC to allow stations to use all-digital transmissions in
the US. In March, Bryan Broadcasting Corporation asked the Commission to
initiate a proceeding to authorize the MA3 primary all-digital service mode
for any AM station that chooses to do so. Bryan is the licensee of four AM
and five FM stations (and six FM translators) in central Texas.

All HD Radio receivers in the market that have AM functionality would be
able to receive such all-digital signals, the article explains, but legacy
AM receivers would not.

Since last summer, WWFD in Frederick, Maryland, has had special temporary
authority to broadcast in all-digital. The Bryan petition appears to be the
first to seek all-digital authority. The petition said the broadcast
industry's experimentation with an all-digital approach "could be
accelerated by actually allowing stations to fully switch to MA3; actual
experiential knowledge by stations that elect to switch will provide
economic proof-of-concept for stations that delay in order to see how
others fare."

The petition also noted discussions that the AM band has "become so
overwhelmed by interference and impulse noise that the resultant audio
product is rendered unacceptable to modern listeners." The petition said
the noise floor generated by unlicensed devices and affecting the AM band
"has been noticeable -- and increasing -- for years." According to the
petition, Bryan has tried to quantify the noise floor increase, but that
studies have not been undertaken in the US. The petition said experience in
other countries suggests a rise from anywhere between 10 dB and 40 dB
between the 1970s and the early 2000s."

A few weeks ago, there was a discussion on of MW stations using time pips.

My info may be dated as I am reviewing my logs from 2006-07, but is Radio

[IRCA] 1080 kHz question

[Joseph Miller]

Hello,

I am going through my old logs and entering them into an Excel worksheet
particularly finning in missing or incorrect information.

My records show that on May 17, 2007 WITC in Hartford went off the air from
11:00 PM to 5:00 AM presumably for maintenance. I managed to log three
stations:

1) Mike Mathews in Timeless Classics, heard music by the Tremeloes, Dean
Martin, Fats Domino, Hamilton Joe Frank and Reynolds, Peggy Lee, Sam Cooke,
Johnny Mathis. Also an ad for Menards which  would narrow it down to the
northern midwestern states.

2) Radio Cadenas, Cuba, heard an ID

3) Unid. Soul music (probably bumper music) Rollye James, Financial
reports. I did a web search and saw she had a show at one time, but not
sure if ever syndicated.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Colin,

Please count me in. Now retired, I have more time for activities like this.
Lately been hearing Asian stations on 41 meters in early morning here.

The other reason I like this idea is some of the websites currently

Thanks Bill,

Six/seven weeks out from winter solstice and thankfully it gets dark a
little later everyday. Tonight I tuned them at 05:55 PM local time and even
though there is a delay of several seconds, their radio signal is // to
their web site at: http://www.inpi.gob.mx/ecosgobmx/xeqin.php

Just heard "estes es equis e cue I, enne La Voz de Valle".

The announcements frequently mention Baja California and alternate between
a man's and a woman's voice in between local music.

Happy to put this one in the log!!!

Thanks again and giud DX

[IRCA] Station ID help requested

[Joseph Miller]

Good evening,

At about 6:00 local time (0200 Zulu) I heard some Spanish on 1160
occasionally overpowering KSL in Utah. Program content was a mix of talk
and more traditional music. At 02:26 I heard instrumentals of "Hey Jude"
and "Unchained Melody", the first being played on flute.

Unfortunately for me, I had no internet access while I could hear them. We
had a lot of rain in the past 24 hours and didn't even have cell phone
service. Then an hour later, the internet returned, but no longer heard
them.

I looked up XEQIN 1160 with a web browser and it took me to live feed of
their program. Content is similar, but did not hear the "La Valle" ID
though.

Any ideas greatly appreciated.

evening, but late at night, they really are strong.

[IRCA] KDYL 1060

[Joseph Miller]

Had one of those nights when I woke up at about 2:30 am.

On 1060 I was hearing Spanish music and talk with an unusually load and
clear signal. At the top of the hour, I heard "this is KDYL South Logan
Utah" and back to more music.

The AM Radio Log shows their format as Chinese Radio Intl. In a rare
moment, I checked Wikipedia and they reported the station changed it's
format to Radio Unica effective January.

Why their signal sounded so good on 66 nighttime watts

Hi Les,  Great to hear from you. I had been wondering about the DXers who
were active when I was. I saw Doug Smith W9WI in Dayton a couple of times.

And has anyone heard from Saul Chernos? He was active with the DX tests
also.

[IRCA] KMTI 650 Manti UT

[Joseph Miller]

This brings back pleasant memories...

Hearing on 650 ABC News at the start of the hour, a fade, some country
music, another fade. First thought was KSTI Rancho Cordova, but they are
Westwood One, but the country music makes it KMTI.

It's been almost 12 years since they had their DX test, and I heard them in
Michigan. Nice to log them here too.

Is Les Rayburn N1LF still active?

Re: [IRCA] article

[Joseph Miller]

A while ago, a group of us made the same observation about 2 meter
repeaters. The gee whiz technology of the 1960's and those who know how to
service these machines are now in their 80's and unable to climb towers any
more. Shortwave radio is practically dead, NDBs are dying.

I hope I am wrong but I don't like what I am seeing either. Thanks for
sharing.

Re: [IRCA] propagation article

[Joseph Miller]

Well, yeah, that was new term for me as well. I did a web search and found
an interesting article by Bob Brown NM7M PhD UC Berkeley (
http://www.astrosurf.com/luxorion/qsl-hf-tutorial-nm7m5.htm ) and I found a
short explanation about halfway down the page. Maybe I can read the entire
article.

Last winter, while still living in S.E. Michigan, I may have experienced
this phenomenon when in just one evening session, I logged 7 NDBs from
Nunavut (6 of which I had never heard before).

Here's hoping this will shed some light on things.

[IRCA] KRVN 880 heard in Southern California

[Joseph Miller]

Hello list members,

It has been a while since subscribing to this list, and about 4-5 months,
my wife and I moved to Southern California, so I now get to start all over
again with the MWDX.The new QTH is in Desert Hot Springs, about 10 miles
straight north of Palm Springs and practically surrounded by mountains.
This is probably the most distant station I have heard since moving here.

KRVN 880 Lexington NE, farm reports, news, station ID, several mentions of
Lexington. Clear signal for a few minutes although the noise is getting
louder. (Miller)

It's good to be back on the list.

will be operating from the Oakland County ARPSC (W8OAK) as a 2F. New for us 
this year will be GOTA station K8G which we will be operating from a Flea 
Market on Sunday Morning from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm. We are also going after every 
single extra point that is available (media, elected officials, served 
agencies, NTS traffic, public display, etc.).

We can send out up to ten NTS messages at 10 points each, and Bert will be 
getting one already. If any one else would like to receive a message through 
NTS, please respond to me privately and I'll add you to the list. Four are 
assigned already, so six are up for grabs.

This is my fourth year at it, and I wouldn't miss it for anything.

73 de Joe Miller, KJ8O, Troy, MI

 Sorry for the somewhat off-topic post, but had a good FM E-skip 
 opening this evening into New Mexico. It was neat to hear several of 
 the stations we saw on the Citadel tour at the IRCA convention last 
 year. One was a new catch, so have now heard 6 of their 7 Albuquerque 
 stations (both AM and FM). KRST 92.3 had the best signal of the bunch, 
 in pretty solidly for an hour or so.

Re: [IRCA] What a treasury! Re Little Egypt

[Joseph Miller]

Hi John


Re: It was like going down to Egypt. Cairo, where the Ohio and Mississippi 
Rivers met, was expected to be one of the greatest American cities, and several 
other little towns in Southern Illinois were named after Egyptian cities -- 
such as Karnak and Thebes. 


I saw a program on the History Channel about 6-8 months ago where they 
mentioned Little Egypt. Had to deal with early explorers if I remember 
correctly.


But getting back to the White's Radio Logs, I bought my first one in 1968. 
There was a drugstore about a half mile from my high school and I'd walk over 
there on my lunch hour to purchase the latest copy.  Rather interesting, they 
are exactly as I remember. I even submitted a station change once and was 
listed in one of their magazines, though sadly, not one of the ones listed on 
the website. Also interesting was to see some of the names of people that I 
currently know

Memories!

Re: [IRCA] Germany 756

[Joseph Miller]

I have listened to Deutschlandfunk on the web or on sghortwave on few 
occasions. There are actually two audio streams available, and I'm assuming 
both are broadcast over the air. 

First is Deutschlandfunk which as Bill points states does have some news 
content, but also as Marc states, frequently has music. I don't listen to this 
one very often.

The other is Deutschlandfunk Kultura (Culture) which carries short news reports 
(typically 5 minutes) with the rest of the hours filled up with either popular, 
jazz, or classical music. All announcements are in German, but the songs can 
sung be in any language, and even if your German isn't that good (like YT), the 
music can be fun to listen to. Lastly, this station does use Deutschlandfunk 
Kultura so it should be fairly easy to ID either station.

Just my 2 cents...

Subject: [IRCA] QSL from 675 - Radio Voice of Vietnam



Heh, Heh, Heh!



Yesterday I got a GREAT early Christmas present from Vietnam!  I had 

reported 675 kHz - VOV1 at least three times from our Orcas Island, 

Washington home over the years and received no reply at all.  Last 

winter, I finally did what I should have done MUCH sooner: Ask 

Patrick Martin what to do!  He had sent a report at the same time as 

my first one and HE got a QSL (of course!) He said that he reported 

675 and a parallel shortwave outlet and got an answer. He thought 

that reporting shortwave was the key.



Well, I waited patiently until 675 was coming in well on Orcas Is. 

this fall and then I began to search for an audible SW parallel. That 

proved more difficult than I expected, but I finally got a morning 

where 675, 5975 and 7210 were all coming in, with 675 being the best 

signal. All were //.



So, then I wrote the best report that I knew how, sent them a CD of 

the entire reception mostly from 675... and included several post 

cards from my home islands, some US station stickers and $2.00.  I 

got back a VOV sticker, a little doll/key chain of a Vietnamese woman 

in traditional clothing (now on the Christmas tree) and the following 

letter on plain paper:



Dear Mr. Bryant



We have checked your CD and realize that it is Voice of Vietnam, 

Channel One, which features news and current affairs. After listening 

to the content, we admire your devotion to radio broadcasting. 

However, we can just send you a reply letter, a frequency list and a 

souvenir but not a verification card because the program you heard 

was from the domestic service. Thank you very much for listening and 

we hope to get some feedback from you about our English service.



Sincerely yours,



English Service

Voice of Vietnam



Am I going to count the above as a QSL for 675 - Voice of Vietnam??? 

Was Ronald Reagan a Republican???



Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas and Happy 2010 to each of you and 

yours. My Christmas is already memorable!

political discussion, mention of Sean Hannity program, local ads for companies 
in nearby Christiansburg. Weak signal up against high noise levels, but 
generally able to copy. Also, heard some CW music underneath.

Subject: [IRCA] Jim Renfrew







Jim has asked me to let the DX community know that he's laid up for a 



while after a car accident Wednesday night near his home.







The good news is that Jim is expected to make a full recovery after 



suffering injuries to several of his vertebrae. There was no spinal-cord 



damage, thankfully.







The bad news is that the recovery will take a while, and for the next 



two to three months he'll be confined to home and wearing a halo device 



around his neck to keep those vertebrae in place while they mend.







(Yes, the jokes have already been made about finding a way to turn the 



halo into an active loop so he can DX MW with it...)







I talked to Jim a short time ago, and he's in good spirits. He's able to 



read e-mail, but it's a little more complicated for him to get the 



keyboard into the right position to send any e-mails, which is why 



you're all hearing from me instead of him.







Please pass this along to other DX lists as you see fit - and as I know 



more about Jim's recovery, I'll pass it along as well.

[IRCA] Chris Johnson

[Joseph Miller]

I saw the sad news on qrz.com which I followed up with a phone call to our 
common friend, that Chris Johnson K2FO (ex K4NHL ex WB2RJL) of Taylors SC 
passed away in the morning of Sunday, September 20, 2009 of a heart attack. 

My favorite memory of Chris was our hour long phone calls talking about various 
subjects as Dr. Knowledge on KDKA, DXing, ham radio, and you name the subject.

Go in peace with our Lord, Chris, you will be missed.

By the way Joe, i think it's K4HNL as one of his old call signs, not K4NHL..

I remember seeing it and thinking Hawaii



Hi Paul, I have access to old call sign information, and it was K4NHL. He 
acquired his new call sign in July 2007, and he talked me into getting one for 
myself.

I was surprised that this news never made the list.

Take care and good luck, Paul,

[IRCA] New logging on 1370

[Joseph Miller]

On the way home from work tonight, I heard a very different station on 1370.



Sounded like several mentions of urban talk including sports, news, and some 
religion, and a station ID that was a little difficult to copy but sounded like 
WDIC. Then they ran an ad for a concert at the Bojangles Coliseum. Did my web 
search, and discovered said building is in Charlotte North Carolina. Thus I was 
able to pinpoint the following:



WGIV, 1370, Pineville, NC, 26 Oct 2009, 2300 (UTC or 7:00 pm local), with a 
fair but copyable signal and no sign of WSPD or WXXI. Quite sure this new. 
Logbooks are on the other computer. 



P.S. Rob, do you have this in your ULR log???

[IRCA] new logging on 1370

[Joseph Miller]

First, I tried again to pull in WXXI, and at 6:29 pm local time (Wednesday Oct. 
21) I heard news that had that NPR feel to it, with thanks to several sponsors, 
the name Renee Montagne (spelling???), and finally the WXXI station ID right 
at 6:30. Not new, but infrequent, and first time at sunset.

This morning at 8:00 am, while the car radio was still on the same frequency, I 
heard some talk radio, and at TOH was station ID WGOH. Turns out, they are a 
5KW daytime station in Grayson KY, with a bearing of 176.9° and distance of 300 
miles (approx). I'll have to check my logbook, but I'm quite sure this is new.

Lastly, someone is running a mystery station, as I have heard some popular 
music, so I'll go back again tonight, and try again.

I will run the 160 meter amateur radio beacon this evening, 21 October our time

This will be on 1998.5 kHz and comprise a repeated CW identifier of my amateur

We didn't have much success with it last night, but tonight, Martin Hall in 
Scotland is bearing down on it with a Beverage, so I'm crossing my fingers.

[Joseph Miller]

- Original Message -
A bit of ULR Bedtime DX Last night netted what I hope are 2 New
Stations. One of these I'm not sure about due to Conflicting Data I have
seen on the Web. The Station in question is...

640   WMFN Zeeland, MICHIGAN

Half of what I read says they are SPANISH...Mexican Brokeredbut I'm
also seeing info suggesting they are Smooth Vibes.Urban Cool Jazz
Format.

Is there anyone CLOSE enough to Zeeland to Confirm for sure just what
Birach Broadcasting is doing over there



Response:   Hi Robert, you are right, there is a lot of outdated info on the 
internet,
including Birach Broadcasting's own website. With Wikipedia, you have to 
carefully
check their sources, but their information appears to be the most up-to-date, 
as it
explains the contract with Tyrone Bynum coming to an end, and the ensuing 
format change taking place in November 2008.

Wiki's article is at: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WMFN

That is about the best I can do right now, as they are received best in the 
early
morning from my home, and it's been a while since last hearing them.

Here's my latest thought on the matter:



Perhaps the way to go here is to simply start eliminating 1310s that we 

*know* aren't our mystery station. We've ruled out WTLC-IN, WEMG-NJ and 

WORC-MA so far. I'm quite certain that my local WRSB-NY isn't it (though 

I'll check again when I get home tomorrow), and I'll be within range of 

Dearborn MI and Alliance OH on the way home today in order to rule those 

out as well, though I'm quite certain neither one is it.



What else can we eliminate for certain?

Yah, the Luso crank-up tower shown at Dayton came with a pretty hefty price tag.

This antenna base is triangual shaped, about 7 feet each side, each part is 30 
feet, fully extended to 150, 4300 horsepower motor running 220 volts.

Never did hear a frim price, but was rumored at abougt $43,000, coax and

Re: [IRCA] The Pipe Dream Traveling MW Monster Loop Antenna - a little OT

I have an off topic question (though it may be useful for DX'ers who
want their PVC loop frames to have some color to them).  Have you done
much painting on PVC pipe? 


According to http://www.pvcworkshop.com/painting.htm the recommended way is to 
get some of the PVC cleaner to remove the markings before painting, although 
priming could be done but as they say it adds a step. The Krylon paint is best 
and the article even shows how to do it.

You certainly piqued my interest in this subject as I have made some small loop 
antennas from PVC in the past, but would like to go for neutral colors for 
those to be left outside. Probably my favorite (for shortwave listening) is the 
100' (30 meters) loop which is very directional and gives me about 6-7 db of 
gain.

Good luck on your endeavors.

There is also some LW coming in tonight although the band is staticky, sounds 
like FF on 183 although nothing but Germany listed,



That's correct. The station is located in Saarlouis (kind of near where the 
French, German, Luxembourg and Belgian borders all come together), so the 
transmitter is technically in Germany although their programs are in the French 
language. I hope this helps.

[IRCA] QSL received

[Joseph Miller]

Hello everyone,


Received a F/D postcard QSL from CKDO 1580 Oshawa Ontario for their DX
special broadcast  60th anniversary show from 05 October 2006. V/s by
afternoon announcer Gary Bernarde, who in a separate e-mail apologized for
the delay as the station changed their e-mail server several months ago, and
mine didn't resurface until just recently. I would also like to give an
extra big thank you to Saul Chernos who assisted in my my follow-up
efforts.

Re: [IRCA] To Les-- (Semi-Monthly QSL Rant)

[Joseph Miller]

To Les, Paul, and the group

RE:   B. If we insist that stations handle the QSL's, especially for major  
tests like the ones in Montana or Utah, then you'll have very few tests.
Stations simply don't have the resources that they once did. Offering to
handle QSL chores make it easier to get tests, period.

RE: If folks don't think that the NRC/IRCA Broadcast Test Coordinator  
cards are valid then don't send in reception reports. No harm, no  
foul. The club(s) have both decided that we're going to offer the  
service to stations...if they accept then both the station and the  
clubs consider these verifications as official.



It's too bad that some DXers can not or will not 'accept' these QSLs. We had
a discussion going a few months ago about whether QSLs issued by a third
party are 'legal'. And our answer was that as long as they are authorized by
station management (such as the case with DX tests) then, yep, they are
legal. Another point to be added: Les very clearly signs his name, title,
and amateur radio call sign to each verification, so no one can argue that
there is any intent to deceive. 

I, for one, am very grateful to both Les and Paul for performing this
service, and I quite proudly display these QSLs along with the ones I get
from directly from the stations.

Thx Tim, J.D. and everyone else

 You and the IRCA list are the best reason there is for a large
membership base covering almost all of the geographic areas in North
America. What's distant and hard to hear for some of us is local and easy to
hear for others. I appreciate being able to get second opinions, especially
on these hard to hear stations, such as 1,000 watts over about 800 miles.

 Keep up the good work, I appreciate all of you!!!

Re: I live in Kansas City, and I just checked 1660 on the way to the store.
They IDed several times as Classical 1660 KXTR, just as they did until the
brief change earlier this year. Good to hear the old calls back.  


 You've probably already seen reports from others here on the list 
 about KXTR changing to WDAF, then changing back soon after.  I 
 remember hearing them ID as WDAF
 when I last checked back in February, and indeed the WDAF logo was on 
 their web page for awhile.  Was reported on amlogbook.com as well.


Someone sure did a great job of getting everyone all mixed up. Thank you for
help in straightening this out.

[IRCA] Kansas logging

[Joseph Miller]

Hi Group  Happy Easter


On 1660 kHz, for the last week or so, I have been hearing classical music,
which according to the NRC Radio Directory, can only be KXTR in Kansas City,
KS.  This is relatively weak signal that tends to drift in and out, and I am
inside a circle of stations from North Dakota, Kansas, Kalamazoo Michigan,
Puerto Rico, New Jersey, and North Carolina. Obviously, I need a directional
loop antenna to sort them out. 

Earlier attempts to confirm reception have been just as frustrating. Dialing
the station's phone number late at night connects me with an automated
attendant and no option to get to the on-air (if any) staff. Their website
has a listen now feature that doesn't work. Lastly, their website has a
did you like what heard? feature that only works for morning broadcasts,
but nothing for late at night.

The good news: I did get in a nice audio recording where their signal peaked
for about a half minute. Hopefully the station will be kind enough to answer
a letter with this audio enclosed.

I know, a lot of trouble to go through, but I am quite proud to say Kansas
#2 after hearing KKOW 860 for the first time last fall.

I acknowledge what you are saying, but I'm having a hard time with this.

FCC says KXTR

0type=0facid=class=list=1dist=dlat2=mlat2=slat2=NS=Ndlon2=mlon2=

Nothing comes up for WDAF under the AM search page.

Entercom's website still shows KXTR

I know the FCC's information is often outdated, but the company's own
website???

Anyway, thank you for your help.

[IRCA] Late night loggings

[Joseph Miller]

All heard in Troy MI using a Sony ICF-2010 with loop antenna:


WGRB 1390 Chicago IL, 3/31/07, 10:58-11:00 PM EDT. Urban gospel music, TOH
ID of WGRD Chicago mixed in with others but no sign of usual WNIO. Nice to
hear Chicago at less than 50 kw! MW#392; IL#13; 1390#3.

WMBD 1470 Peoria IL, 3/31/07, 11:20-11:30 PM EDT. End of NCAA semi-final
basketball game, national ads, post game talk, local ads with several
mentions of Peoria, then a deep man's voice with WMBD. Almost armchair
quality signal on this one for 5 kw out of Central Illinois. MW#393; IL#14;
1470#3.

WFNA 1660 Charlotte NC, 4/1/07, 12:05 AM EDT. NCAA basketball talk on ESPN
Radio. Normally, I hear WQSN Kalamazoo Michigan for ESPN radio on 1660, but
there call sign ID was as plain as day WFNA. Also hearing some classical
music, and New Jersey appears to be in the mix as well. MW#394; NC#8,
1660#3.



Note, it occurred to me that the classical music on 1660 was very likely
Kansas City, KS, but further listening did not provide a call sign.

When travelling I-25 near Johnson's Corner I can hear a nearby 400 kHz
beacon on 800 kHz as I drive past. It was loud enough to overpower
semi-local KLDC when they were still on 800 kHz. This only happened on
the radio in my 96 Ford Bronco and did not happen on the radio in my 85
Corvette.

When I visited the Gillette WY Loran station I could clearly hear the
540,000 watt 100 kHz transmitter on several harmonic frequencies over a
considerable distance. On 700 kHz I could hear it clearly over 12 miles
away. This was again on my 96 Ford Bronco radio.

These were both direct harmonic multiples of the primary frequency and
did not have any noticeable effect from the IF frequency in my receiver.
However, in some cases the IF frequency or other nearby transmitters can
also effect the results. For example, a radio with a 455 kHz IF
frequency might translate a 382 or 383 kHz beacon to 1220 kHz (1220
minus 455 divided by 2 equals 382.5 kHz).

Re: [IRCA] IBOC

[Joseph Miller]

Hi Chuck, George and the group,


Re: What the FCC did was say what their new policy will be. To go from
here's what we think to actual policy requires, amongst other things,
that they publish their new policy. It will likely be several months before
stations actually get legal Approval to use IBOC at night.


Looking at some recent FCC actions, the announcement to end Morse Code
requirements for amateur radio operators was made on December 15, 2006. New
regulations must first appear in the Federal Register, and then go into
effect 30 days after publishing. In this case, the new regulations did not
become effective until February 23, 2007.

As for the IBOC regs, I would give them somewhere around 60 days or perhaps
May 20th. This is strictly a guesstimate on my part though.
