Fontana CA is not hearing it, then I wonder, a no-show?

At only 286 miles I thought I might have a good chance with this one.
And finally something that matched my work schedule! With local KCFC
almost due west of me I can get a pretty good null on them that favors
north-south. But the only thing I heard was a very short burst of
'machine gun'
Patrick,
I think I heard the machine gun thing also around 0101 MST, but I did
not think it was the test, but it was buried in the jumble. I will try
again in a few minutes for the 2nd segment.

Good Morning,
Tried for the test of station KRSN 1490 at 0300 EST, no morse code or sweep
tones heard.
Did hear the call of a horse race at about 0308 EST. Wonder what station is
carrying horse racing calls this early in the morning? Horse racing is my
second hobby. Thanks for those who
Hello,
Previous listing the call letters should have been KRSN not KSRN.
Have a hard time with call letters, typing them and hearing them correctly.
Also have a problem sending e-mails to the correct address. Sorry Steve.
JOUB 774 is in with a fair signal at 0932 UTC. No other TPs heard.
No luck here. Tried all three hours. Noted KICO/Calexico CA, KTOB/Petaluma
CA, KMET/Banning CA and KOWL/South Lake Tahoe CA. I didn't hold out much hope,
but it would have been a great catch.
Thanks for putting the test on. I hope some positive reports do come in.

I listened for all 3 sessions. The first session I may have had a tentative
partial voice ID; or it may have been another station faded up briefly.
Nothing heard for sweep tones or code for any of the sessions. The station
is to my southeast, about 900 miles away.

I missed the test, taking a late nap and waking up about 4am, hi.
IMO, nice catches with KICO and KMET. The first time I heard KOWL (from So.
CAL) they were asking listeners to send in a drawing to be their proposed
mascot OWL. So my wife and I sent one in.

A Drake R8/A/B and a KIWA Loop, for someone that did not want to mess
with outside antennas. Of course the Drake R8/A/B is no longer made as
well as the KIWA loop, but there is still a lot of used ones around.
For a new set up maybe the R75 and a Quantum Loop.

Doesn't it depend upon your goals?
I mean, if you're parked on the domestic channels, it doesn't take much of a
receiver to be happy ... success boils down to directional antennas.
If you're chasing the EU/TP split channels, then it comes down to receiver
design. Except for you boys on the

Hi Patrick,
I only listened during the first DX test session from
0100 -0110 MST with no results - no phonetic CL IDs
no sweep tones. I parked on 1490 starting at 0010 to
get a feel for who else was coming in. A curious
development was that my EWE did a good job of limiting
the impact of KCFC

Another option is what John Bryant did. He coupled (I believe) a 13.8v
marine battery with a 6v motorcycle battery in series. His computer
