Re: [IRCA] Sept 16 - super-opening - 1st video - Victoria B.C.

[Stan Horzepa]

I felt the same way until I added the ELAD S2 receiver to my shack. 
There is no way I could have logged 125 new stations this summer the old 
fashioned way, but each to his own.


By the way, I still DX the old fashioned way when time permits. 
Recording is just another tool in my DX arsenal.

Re: [IRCA] Sept 16 - super-opening - 1st video - Victoria B.C.

[Mauno Ritola]

Generally stations are not interested in reports from outside their 
target area anyway. If the location of the web receiver is clearly 
stated, there shouldn't be a problem. I seldom send reports these days, 
but I have sent one a couple of times to Deutsche Wetterdienst, 
Pinneberg using both my own receiver and reception evaluation about 
signal and audio quality from half a dozen of Western European receivers 
around North Sea (their target area) and they have been very grateful.

Re: [IRCA] Sept 16 - super-opening - 1st video - Victoria B.C.

[R. Colin Newell]

For me it is not the same. When I was 15 I was getting up at 5 AM to DX. There 
is nothing like that feeling of getting up unnaturally early... Bleary eyed at 
the dials. It's hard to describe. 

Using an SDR Is like catching a re-run... Kind of a cheat. You weren't there 
for the action. 

I scratch my head when DXers use awesome spotter receivers like the WebSDR is 
Holland and file reports as if they are there. 

Nope. Give me live dx or nothing.
You can snuggle afterward.

Thanks for putting this up Colin.  Unfortunately, Youtube just spins and spins 
when I try to open it.  Must be a LOT of folks trying to hear what they missed.

It’s not easy being a ‘frequent Grayland visitor’ living on the east coast.

I would suspect that ‘opening’ allowed some carriers, at least, to come pretty 
far east.  Alas, my 4-element Wellbrook array is down at the moment.
