[IRCA] carrier on 693 Part 2
Okay, I tried again for the 693 carrier this morning between 0830 and 0900z using the same antennas as yesterday. I could not get an antenna to the NW to work right, so I don't have a good bearing. Anyway, I had some threshold audio this time and with a little work, I might be able to get something out of it. The station had musical selections with announcements. This does not sound like NHK that I remember from Korea. There was only slight traces of a signal after 0900. This time, no traces on 747 and 774. There was a 20 second or so blimp around 738, but that could have been from 740's audio - a song hitting that frequency Well, I am now leaning towards a lingering European. What are others hearing at this time? West Coast DXers, what does NHK have between 0830 and 0900?

[IRCA] IRCA] carrier on 693 Part 2
Bill, A few years ago I would get off work around 0800 utc and when JOUB 774 NHK2 was in I would here music at times. One morning around this time I heard White Shade of Pale by Procol Harum. Woke up at 0915 utc this morning and JOUB 774 was in on the R-30cc with the active whip. Check you recording around 0900 utc for pips. Good luck Bill.

Re: [IRCA] carrier on 693 Part 2
Hello Bill, Like Dennis and Nick, I am also a west coast TP DXer, and I was actually listening on the band early this morning, at the time you described (0830-0900z). 693 was only a moderately strong carrier here around 0830, but there was already good audio on 594, 747, 774, 828 and 972. This apparently was the peak Asian sunset propagation period for the day, so I am inclined to believe that you probably were indeed receiving signals from Asia, although I'm sorry that I kept no record of the NHK2 network (JOAB-693) program at that time. 73, Gary DeBock Using Modified ICF-2010 (30 loopstick) **AOL Search: Your one stop for directions, recipes and all other Holiday needs.
