[IRCA] Alberta TPs for 23 September 2015

[Nigel Pimblett]

Some interesting signals this morning, with some different ones 
than I've generally been hearing.   In the search for any Asians this 
side of the Rockies I also checked on Don Moman's Perseus up at Lamont, 
to find that reception there was just as DU as here, and with a few much 
more potent signals to boot, especially the Brisbane stations on 792 
(benefitting from CFCW's move) and 1116.  Rather unusual, as generally 
signal levels are similar between here and there.

Here's the rundown of Dunmore audio this morning:


702 NEW ZEALAND, Auckland   'Magic'
Oldies tunes, // web stream.   No sign of Australia.

774 AUSTRALIA, Melbourne3LO
End of talk by a man, then pips and ABC news fanfare at 1300.

792 AUSTRALIA, Brisbane 4RN
	Traces of man speaking, eclectic mix of music.  (Very weak here, but 
strong at Don's place)


819 UNID
Man reading the news at 1303

891 AUSTRALIA, Adelaide 5AN
Fair signal with interview by a man at 1256

1017UNID
	Much like the other day, heard man and woman talking at 1258 under a 
strong carrier (which was likely from Tonga).


1116AUSTRALIA, Brisbane 4BC
	Conversation between man and woman at 1304.   Lucky to make out the odd 
word here, but could copy every word from across the room using Don's 
Perseus about 10 minutes later


1566UNID
Weak, with man talking at 1256.  Most likely 3NE again.

1611UNID
Traces of talk by a man at 1301

1701.03  UNID
Talk by a woman at 1301, but too weak to determine language.

Here's a link to 1116 4BC as heard in Lamont:

I was surprised to hear that report, I wasn't home this morning so no
chance for me to get up early and ruin it for all of you!  Thanks for that
clip, really is across the room audio!

It seems Nigel was making his quick check using the Perseus without the
antenna selection capability  see:
http://microtelecom.it/map/PerseusServers.html  and therefore using the
Wellbrook ALA100, which normally isn't the best choice for MW when I have
several decently long beverages to choose from.  So for the next few days
I've programmed the 4 antenna ports to be 1 and 2 are Wellbrook loops of
differing height and wire length; 3 is the 1000' west (VK) beverage and 4
is the 2100' Eu beverage.  Antennas are switched using the 4 ATT settings.
The actual attenuation function isn't active but the S meter is adjusted
for the various ATT factors so it will be off by the amount of ATT it
thinks is in the circuit, but isn't.
