Re: [IRCA] coastal TAs...
Saudi 1521 is consistently the best TA here in western TN, many nights with audio and some nights totally dominant over 1520 with 100% audio. Second best TA here is usually Absolute UK on 1215.

Re: [IRCA] coastal TAs...
For once I have to agree with Nigel. 1521 was in here several times many years ago, but these days I condider myself lucky if I see a carrier. But then conditions can vary a great deal between here and the southern part of the province, for example: last night Nigel had TAs across the band whereas I had one faint lonely carrier on 162.

The final tally here, beyond 1215 strutting its stuff, was two poor audios, 1089 and 1206, 891 with a big carrier and no audio, and further carriers on 711 1044 1107 1116 1422 and 1584, beyond the others previously mentioned.

Re: [IRCA] coastal TAs...
Judging by the briefly very nice strength here on 1215 (http://www3.telus.net/public/shallpat/listen/1215--20140825_043508.wav), there may be possibilities already Barry.

Re: [IRCA] coastal TAs...
Thanks Sylvain.

For the northwest people there is a semi-local or two on 1520, Mark, and usually by the time we hear TA's fade in, there's lots of skywave to wreak havoc as well.

Re: [IRCA] coastal TAs...
For unknown reasons 1521 has never been a big player here in southern Alberta. The only time I've heard it was in the glory days of 2009.I've certainly tried many times when I've read about it doing so well further east, but generally I either hear a very feeble carrier, or none at all. 73, Nigel Pimblett Dunmore, AB On 25/08/2014 10:01 PM, Nick Hall-Patch wrote: For the northwest people there is a semi-local or two on 1520, Mark, and usually by the time we hear TA's fade in, there's lots of skywave to wreak havoc as well. When I've checked, there's never been a carrier, but I probably should ignore the sense of futility and check more! What do the Alberta guys say? best wishes, Nick Why not Benin for 1566? Or, for that matter, UK? I'm surprised that the western TA reports aren't mentioning the 1521 Saudi. I heard them in 1986 from El Paso, TX (Residence Inn near airport) on a Sony '2010 with then-KOMA 1520 nulled. 1521 starts peeling the paint off the wall this time of year here in MA. Often the loudest TA and frequently good 2+ hours pre-sunset at beach sites. Mark Connelly, WA1ION South Yarmouth, MA Never checked until late because of earlier arrangements, but TAs were in here too. Many frequencies showed faint carriers. Poor audio on 1215 and 1566 only. 1215 was probably the UK, but I don't know who was on 1566 as I have never logged a TA here, but could have been Iran.
